114 George DaM, 



In still anotlicr record of this inarch mention is made of Dor. 

 This is the anonymous history of the First Crusade (with a contin- 

 uation to 1133) written in 1146-47 by order of J3aldwin III of 

 Jerusalem, and known as Ealduini III llistoria Nicaena vcl Antio- 

 chena\ Beginning with the abandonment of the siege of Archas, 

 this account reads: 



Mox obsidionem solventes, ]>raetergressi sunt urbem Tripolim 

 di'inde urbem Beritum, post haec Sydonem, (juae ab incolis Sagitta 

 dicitur, exinde Sareptam Sydoniae, dehinc Tyrum, (juam Sur 

 nominant (Ilebraice enini 8oor dicitur), inde Ptolemaidam, prius 

 Accon dictam, deinde oppidum Chaypha, exhinc Doram, post haec 

 Caesaream Palaestinae, quae altero nomine Turris Stratonis dicitur. 



Like the accounts already given, this gives us no definite iid'or- 

 mation about the town of Dor. 



Covering in part this same period is the Avork, Benedicti De 

 Accoltis llistoria Gotefridi", written between the years 1404 and 

 1406. In the midst of his description of the advance toward Jeru- 

 salem, this late historian digresses in order to explain the location 

 of the princi{)al cities of Judea : 



Duo in ea nobiles portus Lannetorum et Gazeon imprimis 

 fuerunt, et infrascri2)tae urbes maritimae, quae praecipuae habe- 

 bantur: Stratonis (Pyrgus), Caesarea, Appollonia, Azotus, Joppe, 

 Aschalon, Gaza, Dora et Antedon. 



After mentioning other Judean and the Samaritan and Galilean 

 cities, he continues: 



Sed ex his non paucae urbibus desertae aut disiectae fuerant, 

 quum Christiani Judaeam armis repetiverunt, plurimae quoque 

 vetus nomen prorsus amiserant. 



Casual reference to Dor is made by William of Tyre (Book X, 

 Cap. XXVI)' in connection with the wounding of King Baldwin I 

 in the year 1103 on his return along the coast after the abandon- 

 ment of the sieece of Ptolemais:

 William of Tyre.
