- See PIC FH/3892 and The Holy City, 1949. "Where Elijah was fed by Ravens. Continuing along the old Roman road which skirts the brink of the Wady Kelt, and which the footsteps of our Lord and His apostles must have trod many times, we gain glimpses of this rugged glen with its unscaleable walls, trenched with a Roman aqueduct-still in use today-and a small perennial stream flowing at the bottom. Hereabouts Saint Joachim hid himself to bewail the sterility of his wife, Anne, when in a vision he saw the angel who announced to him the birth of the Blessed Virgin. The memories of the Saint are enshrined in the old convent of Couziba (St George Monastery), which hangs like a swallow's nest above the abyss".
