Duris (also Dūris, or Dûris[1] (Arabic: دورس), formally Doris[2] and also known by its French spelling Douris[3]) is a village located approximately 3 km (2 mi).

It is the site of a 13th-century Muslim shrine and a necropolis from the late Roman Imperial period that is currently undergoing archaeological investigation.

It was found by M. Billaux in 1957 who showed it to two archaeologists who were also members of the Society of Jesus, Henri Fleisch and Maurice Tallon.

[3] Its sarcophagus was raised or left standing to serve as a mihrab, helping to direct prayer towards Mecca.

[9] In 1838, Eli Smith noted Duris as a Sunni Muslim and Maronite village in the Baalbek District.
