A Roman Theatre in ancient Palmyra in the Syrian Desert.
The Roman Theatre at Palmyra (Arabic: ุงูู ุณุฑุญ ุงูุฑูู ุงูู ุจุชุฏู ุฑโ) is a Roman theatre in ancient Palmyra in the Syrian Desert. The unfinished theatre dates back to the second-century CE Severan period. The theatre's remains have since been restored. It used to serve as a venue for the annual Palmyra festival, before the ancient town was taken by ISIL (May 2015).
This model is incomplete (20% documented). It is a community re-creation, not a direct continuation of Bassel Khartabil's lost files from 2005โ2012. See known archive gaps.
