Dium (Coele-Syria)

[6] Dium is mostly identified with Tell el-Ash'ari from the Daraa Governorate in southwestern Syria[7][8] (see fr:Tell al-Achari at French Wikipedia).

According to Ptolemy, the city was positioned between Pella and Gadara which are both in Jordan,[2] and quite close to it;[10] but its latitude was quite uncertain.

[9] The Ruins of Tell Ashari fulfill the concept of a small greek City positioned at a Mount and around it.

A Theatre high above the yarmouk river ravine is unfortunately due to the civil war in a really bad condition.

But Dium (not to confuse with Dionysias/ As Suweida), which was normally inside the protected territories of these days, was not an episcopal see.
