EDITORS COMMENTS
Apamea or Apameia, also known as Afamia, was a prominent city in ancient Syria during the Roman Empire, located in the northern part of the country. This image showcases a detailed view of the Cardo Maximus, the main street of the city, dating back to the 2nd century AD. The Cardo Maximus was an essential element of the urban infrastructure, serving as a commercial and economic hub, as well as a symbol of Roman civilization. The colonnade in the foreground is a remarkable architectural feature of the Cardo Maximus. Its elegant fluted shafts, supported by sturdy bases, display the intricate craftsmanship of the Roman architects. The columns, with their distinctive capitals, create a harmonious and impressive avenue, inviting visitors to explore the city. Apamea was renowned for its grandeur and sophistication, with numerous architectural marvels that have withstood the test of time. The Cardo Maximus and its colonnade are but a testament to the rich history and urbanism of this ancient city. The ruins, though aged, continue to captivate the imagination and inspire awe, offering a glimpse into the past and the grandeur of the Roman Empire. The Cardo Maximus and its colonnade are a significant reminder of the Roman influence on the ancient world, and the enduring legacy of the Roman civilization. The view of this ancient site, with its intricate details, invites us to reflect on the history and culture of the Syrian people and their contributions to human civilization.
