The columns in the foreground have toppled, but those in the background, which once supported covered sidewalks, stand. The modern shelter protects a Byzantine mosaic. The building behind it once housed the largest bath in the country. At some 400 feet below sea-level, this was perhaps the hottest Roman town in Palestine.
