Water
AnswerEven in the Biblical days the Dead Sea was 'dead' in that nothing except highly tolerant bacteria lived in it because of the high salt content. Unlike the Sea of Galilee (now called Lake Tiberius), which were and still are prime fishing waters, the Dead Sea was caused by the River Jordan draining into it with nowhere else to go. Evaporation of the water over thousands of years meant that salt concentrations increased gradually. Now the sea is smaller than in Biblical times and the concentration of salt and other minerals the highest of any body of water in the world.
