Abstract

ABSTRACT This article presents part of the excavations and surveys conducted over the last ten years by the Directorate General of Antiquities (DGA) of Lebanon in the northern Bekaa Valley. These investigations have revealed the remains of several Roman settlements and various religious structures from the classical and post-classical periods. One of these settlements was found in the village of Deir el-Ahmar, where a wine press was discovered in 2011 inside the church of Saydet el-Borj, as well as a Roman quarry situated on top of the so-called Mrah Rouhanna Hill. Results of the excavations and surveys conducted in these two localities, as well as tentative dates for the uncovered structures, are offered.
