"Mother of the Arches") is an archaeological site on the Golan Heights, whose main phase is dated to the mid-5th - 8th centuries.[1][2] Excavations have revealed a Roman-era settlement, first inhabited by pagans and later by Jews, who left behind the ruins of an exquisite synagogue when they abandoned the town after it being destroyed by the catastrophic 749 earthquake.[1] The site is located 10 kilometers east of the Dead Sea Transform,[3] one kilometer southwest of Natur.[1]
