Abstract

Water resources have maintained their importance for mankind throughout history. This is known to be the main reason why settlement centers are concentrated along the river banks. Rivers, an important factor that affected community life, were deified due to the abundance and catastrophes they brought along with their being water resources in the ancient times where they met daily necessities. The rivers, as they are nowadays, were regarded as a natural border in the shaping of political geography in the old world and recorded as geographical elements that must be crossed or difficult to overcome in military activities. The Asi River, which is the subject of this article, roughly stretches along the eastern Mediterranean and the western part of Lebanon. This study aims to examine the new nomenclatures and the sources of these nomenclatures that Asi, which has hosted birth of different civilizations, has got according to the activity level of each civilization.
