Palmyra (/ˌpælˈmaɪrə/; Aramaic: ܬܕܡܘܪܬܐ Tedmurtā ; Arabic: تدمر Tadmor) is an ancient Semitic city in present-day Homs Governorate, Syria. Archaeological finds date back to the Neolithic period and the city was first documented in the early second millennium BC. Palmyra changed hands on a number of occasions between different empires, before becoming a subject of the Roman Empire in the first century AD.
The city grew wealthy from trade caravans; the Palmyrenes, renowned merchants, established colonies along the Silk Road and operated throughout the Roman Empire. Palmyra's wealth enabled the construction of monumental projects, such as the Great Colonnade, the Temple of Bel and the distinctive tower tombs. The Palmyrenes were a mix of Amorites, Arameans and Arabs. The city's social structure was tribal, and its inhabitants spoke Palmyrene (a dialect of Aramaic); Greek was used for commercial and diplomatic purposes. The culture of Palmyra, influenced by Greco-Roman culture, produced distinctive art and architecture that combined eastern and western traditions. The city's inhabitants worshiped local deities and Mesopotamian and Arab gods.

Government forces, backed by the Russian military, who recaptured Palmyra on Sunday, say they will use the ancient city as a base to launch more attacks against the Islamic State group (IS). The Unesco World Heritage site was occupied by the group for 10 months. Footage from inside the site shows that much of it is still standing, although there is also extensive damage.

This is a tribute to all the brave soldiers who fought to defeat ISIS in Palmyra. For the Syrian, Russian soldiers and all our allies, thank you for your bravery and your sacrifice. The clip at the end is an old Syrian TV show about Ancient Palmyra, and Queen of Syria at the time Zenobia who resisted the roman empire. This is why Palmyra were 'ruins' not due to time alone but do to war an invasion. And yes i think it has applications for today.

Im Deutschen Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt bereitet eine illustre Runde aus Radarexperten, Geophysikern, Astrophysikern und Archäologen einen Versuch vor, den es so zuvor noch nicht gegeben hat. Mit dem neu entwickelten Radarsatelliten TerraSAR-X wollen die Wissenschaftler des DLR vom All aus eine Siedlung erfassen, die in der syrischen Oasenstadt Palmyra unterm Wüstensand verborgen liegt. Die versunkene Stätte ist seit über 30 Jahren das Lieblingsobjekt des Archäologen Professor Schmidt-Colinet. Bei einer seiner Grabungen entdeckte er ein weitläufiges Gebäude, das sich als vorzeitliches Geschäftszentrum entpuppte. Im so genannten Khan wurden Waren aus aller Herren Länder gehandelt: Seide aus China, Indigo aus Indien, Wein aus Rhodos oder auch Oliven aus dem fernen Spanien. Seit seinem F...

Das antike Palmyra gehört zu den bedeutesten Ausgrabungsstätten Syriens und steht auf der Liste des UNESCO-Weltkulturerbes. Die Siedlung, Tempel und Gräber decken weitläufiges Areal ab. Wir hatten bei unserer Reise mit Eberhardt TRAVEL einen Tag Zeit, ein paar Eindrücke zu gewinnen. Wir schlenderten über die Kolonadenstraße, sahen das Theater, besuchten einen Grabturm und ein unterirdisches Grab. Besonders beeindruckend war der Tempel des Baal. Zum Abschluss hatten wir einen wunderbaren Blick von der Burg, die mit rund 700 Jahren in dieser Gegend eher ein junges Gebäude ist. Palmyra war übrigens eine Oasenstadt, die aus mehrere Quellen gespeist wurde. Leider ist inzwischen auch die letzte Quelle versiegt. Das Grün zieht sich langsam zurück. Intensiv Palmyra erleben kann man hier: http://ww...

Only a few old petals left
On the rose that touched your hand
My little heart is a graveyard
It's a no man's land
You could tell I didn't care, you kept pushing till I did
Woke up in a pit of despair on your bed
And I wondered how I could do without you
How absurd, how absurd, how absurd
Put my lipstick back on, look myself in the eye
I'm heading out in the cold hard world
And I'm getting very good at saying my goodbyes
My goodbyes, my goodbyes
My goodbyes, my goodbyes
Can you read the inscription?
It seems to once have said
He better take me with him
When he goes I'm good as dead
Put some roses on the stones, look your friends in the eye
If nothing else we've got that old sucking line
And I'll dance at your funeral if you dance at mine
You dance at mine, you dance at mine
You dance at mine, you dance at mine
They took it all and I don't care, already said my farewell
Sweet Palmyra and her uncle's [Incomprehensible]
Have to hit that long road that passes straight through hell
Straight through hell, straight through hell
I wish you well sweet Palmyra
I wish you well sweet Palmyra
