The ruins of the main temple, looking back from the altar area.
The original purpose of the temple was, perhaps, to worship the Egyptian god, Isis. Floral frieze fragment.
Another religion showing up, Hebrew text on a headstone.
The main temple is flanked by round rotundas, well preserved. One rotunda is an active mosque.
More work to do. Dig it, sort it and shelve it for another day, another decade.
