The Dead Sea indicates dry periods in the past

Dramatic drops in the level of the Dead Sea in the last hundreds of thousands of years may indicate prolonged dry periods in the eastern Mediterranean region. For example, in the time period between 70 and 14 thousand years ago, the lake level was about 270 meters higher than the current level.
