Moab (; Moabite: ''mʾb''; Arabic مؤاب ''muʾāb''; ; Greek Μωάβ ''Mōáb''; Assyrian ''Mu'aba'', ''Ma'ba'', ''Ma'ab''; Egyptian ''Mu'ab'') is the historical name for a mountainous strip of land in Jordan. The land lies alongside much of the eastern shore of the Dead Sea. The existence of the Kingdom of Moab is attested to by numerous archaeological findings, most notably the Mesha Stele, which describes the Moabite victory over an unnamed son of King Omri of Israel.〔''see'' 2 Kings 3〕 The Moabite capital was Dibon. According to the Bible, Moab was often in conflict with its Israelite neighbours to the west. ==Origins==
The Moabites likely settled in the Transjordanian highlands. Whether they were among the nations referred to in the Ancient Egyptian language as ''Shutu'' or ''Shasu'' is a matter of some debate among scholars. Despite a scarcity of archaeological evidence, the existence of Moab prior to the rise of the Israelite state has been deduced from a colossal statue erected at Luxor by Pharaoh Ramesses II, in the 13th century BCE, which lists ''Mu'ab'' among a series of nations conquered during a campaign.
