Necropolis Temple of Dura-Europos

The so-called necropolis temple was in the north of Dura-Europos, outside the city walls, about 150 m northwest of the main gate.

A cistern next to the temple may have served as a water point for the pack animals.

The pronaos consisted of a large room with a niche (naos) on the back wall.

This building also had a courtyard in the middle and a sanctuary with a niche on the west side.

[5] A second inscription, written in Greek, is badly damaged, but seems to name Baal as the only god in the temple.

[6] The third inscription, also in Greek, is not well preserved and comes from a Maribelos who may report that he built an annex in 173 AD.
