     * Cesarea.
       This city, once an obscure fortress called Strato's Tower, was
       built and superbly decorated by Herod the Great and called
       C(9173)area, in honour of Augustus C(9173)ar, to whom he dedicated it
       in the 28th year of his reign.  It was situated on the shore
       of the Mediterranean, between Joppa and Dora, with a haven,
       rendered by Herod the most convenient on the coast:  according
       to Ibn Idris and Abulfeda, 30; miles from Jaffa or Joppa, 32
       from Ramlay, and 36; from Acco or Ptolemais; and, according to
       Josephus, 600; stadia, or 75; miles from Jerusalem, though the
       real distance is probably not more than 62; miles.  Nothing now
       remains of the former splendour of C(9173)area:  the supposed
       sites of the ancient edifices are mere mounds of indefinable
       form; the waves wash the ruins of the mole, the tower, and the
       port; the whole of the surrounding country is a sandy desert;
       and not a creature except beasts of prey, resides within many
       miles of this silent desolation.
