This Byzantine Period basilica at Pella is one of three churches so far uncovered at the site.
This particular basilica stands at the head of the spring in Wadi Jirm that is located between the main mound (to right in the photo), and Tell Husn. *Destroyed by a severe earthquake in the eighth century CE, the restoration of this monument has been the responsibility of the Jordanian Department of Antiquities over recent years.
