Ruins at Resafa known in Roman times as Sergiopolis, in remote eastern Syria 200 km southeast of Aleppo. The ruins seen today were built by the Ghassanids, a Christianised Arab tribe. It became an important religious centre after the death of the Roman soldier Sergius who was martyred there around 305 AD.
