Djebel Barîshā

We returned to this mountain to revisit the
ruined town in its northern end discovered
by the Am. Exped. All the deserted
towns north of Burdj Baḳirhā were visited
again for a more detailed study.

The camp was pitched at Dâr Kîtā; from
there we made trips to Bābisḳā, Ksêdjbeh,
Bāḳirhā, Khirbit Tēzîn, Khirbit il-Khaṭîb,
and Kasr Iblîsū.

At Dâr Kîtā, F.A.R. surveyed the town, and I
measured almost every building of which there
are walls standing.

At Bābisḳā, F.A.R. made a rough survey and I
measured the bath and the buildings about it,
including the bazarrs of Khaus to the East.

At Ksêdjbeh, I measured the buildings on the
cloister of the E. Church and measured the
church itself. In Bābisḳā a new insc. was found.
