EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, the ancient Roman wall of Bosra, Syria, stands as a testament to the rich historical tapestry of the region. Dating back to the 3rd century AD, the Roman wall encircled the city, protecting it from external threats. Over the centuries, the wall has witnessed the rise and fall of various civilizations, including the Arab Empire, the Crusaders, and the Ottomans. In the 1930s, as the sun cast long shadows over the rugged landscape, the stones of the old Roman wall served as the foundation for a new structure. The Arabs had built a citadel on top of the ancient ruins, which later became a strategic stronghold for the Crusaders. In the early 20th century, the citadel was captured by the French, who established a garrison there. The photograph captures the timeless beauty of the ancient stones, weathered by the passage of time, yet still standing proud. The modern French flag flutters in the breeze, a reminder of the region's complex history and the various powers that have shaped it. The image invites us to reflect on the enduring legacy of the past and the ongoing interplay of history, culture, and politics in the Middle East. Bosra, located in modern-day Syria, continues to be a fascinating destination for historians, archaeologists, and travelers alike. The ancient ruins, including the Roman theater and the Umayyad Mosque, draw visitors from around the world, offering a glimpse into the rich tapestry of human history. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of preserving our cultural heritage for future generations.
