New Old Temple Discovered In Syria
Global Arab Network is reporting the discovery of a “pre-Hellenistic” temple at Tal Ahmar in Southern Syria.
Stone stairs and the foundations of a temple built on the ruins of an older temple from the pre-Hellenistic period were unearthed at the site of Tal Ahmar in Sweida province, Global Arab Network reports according to archaeological sources.
I’m not exactly sure what the Syrian pre-Hellenistic period is. I guess it means sometime before 332 BCE or there about. From an account in the Xinhua News Agency, this older temple is below a Nabataean era temple.
