EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Tower of Elahbel, a four-storey sandstone tower tomb nestled in the valley near the ancient city of Palmyra in Syria. Dating back to the 1st and 2nd centuries AD, the Tower of Elahbel, also known as Tower 13 or Kubbet el Arus, is an architectural marvel of the ancient Syrian civilization. Its intricately carved sandstone facade is adorned with intricate designs and inscriptions, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of the region. The Tower of Elahbel and several other less well-preserved tower tombs in Palmyra were reportedly destroyed by the extremist group ISIL/ISIS in August 2015, marking a devastating loss for the archaeological community and the world. This photograph, taken in the 1980s by Hubertus Kanus, offers a poignant reminder of the beauty and significance of these ancient structures. Palmyra, with its unique blend of Greco-Roman and Arabic influences, was once a thriving center of trade and culture in the ancient world. Its archaeological site, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is home to numerous monuments and tombs, including the famous Temple of Bel and the Temple of Baalshamin. The destruction of these sites is a tragic reminder of the ongoing destruction of cultural heritage around the world. This photograph is a testament to the importance of preserving the world's archaeological sites and cultural heritage for future generations. The Tower of Elahbel, with its architectural grandeur and historical significance, continues to inspire awe and wonder, even in its ruined state.
