* The traditional and literal translation of the Hebrew term Netsiv melah has been "pillar of salt," and tracts have been written in the Middle Ages explaining the process whereby a person could turn into crystalline salt. However, if--as we believe--the mother tongue of Abraham and Lot was Sumerian, and the event was first recorded not in a Semitic language, but in Sumerian, an entirely different and more plausible understanding of the fate of Lot's wife becomes possible.
