Jericho was an ancient city in Israel, mentioned in the Bible.

Background[]

When speaking with Blind Diode Jefferson, he claims he can program the Sonic emitter with waves that would make "Jericho look like a kazoo."[1] This is a reference to the biblical tale of the Battle of Jericho, in which the Canaanite stronghold was captured after the Israelites surrounded the city and blew their horns, causing the walls to fall.

Appearances[]

Jericho is mentioned only in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Old World Blues.

    Blind Diode Jefferson: "Dig, I'm-a acoustical wizard, kid. Ol' Doc Mo used me to prototype his sonic weapon designs. Get me a good sample base to work from and I can whip up a wave that makes Jericho look like a kazoo."
