 * Gaza.
   Gaza, a city of great antiquity, was situated between Raphia
   and Askelon, twenty-two miles north of the former, and sixteen
   south of of the latter, according to the Antonine Itinerary;
   three miles from the sea, according to Arrian, and thirty-four
   from Ashdod or Azotus, according to Diodorus Siculus.  It was
   a place of great strength and importance; and successively
   belonged to the Philistines, Hebrews, Chaldeans, and Persians;
   which latter defended it for two months against Alexander the
   great, who finally took and destroyed it.  It was afterwards
   rebuilt, and alternately possessed by the Egyptians, Syrians,
   and Jews.  The present town, which the Arabs call Razza, is
   situated on an eminence, and is rendered picturesque by the
   number of fine minarets which rise majestically above the
   buildings, with beautiful date trees interspersed.  It
   contains upwards of 2,000; inhabitants.
