File talk:12 Tribes of Israel Map.svg

What's the background on this map? It seems inaccurate as a modern interpretation of the Biblical record. For instance, on at least one of the particulars where it differs from the, the latter is in fact more consistent whth the Biblical account (which, unless there are other sources not mentioned in the Tribal allotments of Israel, I assume are meant to be the map's origins). Specifically, Joshua 12:1 makes it clear the Transjordanian territory should extend as far north as Mount Hermon, well north of the Sea of Galilee, unlike in this image where the Transjordanian territory ends a bit south of Galilee.

Zebulun
I cant help but notice that in this map the boundaries for the tribe of Zebulun do not entirely match up with the description given in the Tribe of Zebulun article nor the book of Joshua.

According to the corresponding article:
 * The territory it was allocated was at the southern end of the Galilee, with its eastern border being the Sea of Galilee, the western border being the Mediterranean Sea, the south being bordered by the Tribe of Issachar, and the north by Asher on the western side and Naphtali on the eastern.

The map should show Zebulun connected to the Sea of Galilee, not landlocked from it. Abrahamic Faiths (talk) 23:49, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

Dan
Dan's location is not the same as mentioned in the English article (north, around the city of Dan). Either the map or the article need to be revised. See also: en:Talk:Tribe_of_Dan Bennylin (talk)
