Remember, Lord, what the Edomites did
on the day Jerusalem fell.
“Tear it down,” they cried,
“tear it down to its foundations!”
Psalm 137:7 NIV
- Cirque (Wikipedia)
A cirque (French: [siʁk]; from the Latin word circus) is an amphitheatre-like valley formed by glacial erosion. Alternative names for this landform are corrie (from Scottish Gaelic: coire, meaning a pot or cauldron) and cwm (Welsh for ‘valley’; pronounced [kʊm]). A cirque may also be a similarly shaped landform arising from fluvial erosion.
