Beshindelinti October 31, 1899

On the way to Ma'sarti we ^ G & B ^ visited this small ruined town now occupied by a few Druses There are here remains of two important buildings and a confused mass of less extensive structures. That at the S.E. portion of the ruins preserved a colonnaded portico + or atrium within the front (east) wall. At the south end of the portico is a square chamber, at the other end a long vaulted chamber at [...] to the colonnade. Adjoining this to the north another room with a gable toward the east. Small traces of walls running west can be found but not sufficient to give a further plan.

The colonnade consists of three columns, 2 pilasters and a cornice above an architrave. The columns have plain monolithic shafts ^ with ^ one debased Ionic and two debased Corin. (sic-corinthian). capitals. + The caps of the pilasters are of the simplest moulded style.
