Who were the Essenes? North of En
Gedi (Pliny the Elder)
76
"On the west side of the Dead Sea, but out of the range of the noxious exhalation of the coast, is the solitary tribe of the Essenes, which is remarkable
beyond all the other tribes in the whole world, as it has no women and has renounced all sexual desire,
has no money, and has only palm trees for company. Day by day the throng of refugees is recruited to an equal number by numerous [additions] of persons
tired of life and driven thither by the waves of fortune to adopt their manners. Thus through thousands of ages (incredible to relate), a race in which no one is
born lives on forever; so prolific for their advantage is other men's weariness of life! Lying below them
[Essenes] was formerly the town of En Gedi (Pliny, Natural History 2)
