Chisholm Point is a cape of Tiran Island. Some theologists believe that this is the location of the parting of the Red Sea described in the Book of Exodus in the Torah. Israel briefly took over the island during the Suez Crisis and again between 1967 to 1982 following the events of the Six Day War. Procopius writes that there was an autonomous Jewish community on the island (then called Iotabe) until the sixth century AD, when it was conquered by the Byzantine Empire. This history figured in Israeli rhetoric during the Suez Crisis. Some sources report that beaches of the island are mined.
