Wadi Shu'aib

Wadi Shueib, (Arabic: وادي شُعَيب‎‎) Arabic for the Valley of Jethro and properly Wadi Shuʿeib but with many variant romanizations, is a wadi in Jordan draining an area of approximately 180 square kilometers (69 sq mi). Towns and villages along the wadi include Salt, Fuheis, and Mahis, which discharge treated and untreated sewage into its course. It is named for the Biblical figure Jethro.

It lies west of Sweileh and varied in elevation from 1,200 meters (3,900 ft) to sea level. An earth-filled dam was constructed across it in 1968. Excavations have confirmed that the area was a major site during Jordan's Neolithic period.
