The Syrian national archaeological team unearthed an important and unique archaeological cemetery dating back to the Romanian era at the village of Marin al Jabal, southeast of the city of Hama (central Syria).

He indicated that the studies on the archaeological findings proved that the cemetery dated back to the Romanian era and were re-used in the Byzantine era.

Head of the archaeological national mission Abdullah Bassal said the cemetery is unique since it was built of calcium stones and its ceiling was a semicircle dome where most of the discovered cemeteries were dug in stones.

On the other side, the national archaeological team working at Tal Damer, northern al-Raqqa, to the northeast of Syria, discovered a big building consisting of four rooms, wide courtyard and water well.

The Head of the team said they found many of archaeological findings that date back to the Abassids era.
