Josephus says that a multitude of armed Samaritans gathered on Mount Gerizim in hopes of uncovering treasures that Moses had supposedly buried there.
Josefs Flāvijs raksta, ka milzīgs pūlis bruņotu samariešu bija sapulcējušies Garicima kalnā, jo gribēja atrast dārgumus, ko tur it kā esot paslēpis Mozus.
