🔴 The Land at the End of the Empire: The Roman Eastern Border in Mesopotamia

"The impressive archaeological remains of the city — enclosed by massive walls and spatially organized by insulae (habitation blocks) — have yielded records of a multi-ethnic and religious settlement, with rich civilian houses flanked by a military quarter with baths and a small amphitheater, with temples and shrines dedicated to local deities, but also a synagogue and a church."
