description <p>The Syrian city of Dura Europos, surprising for its exceptional architectural sense of re-use and for its multi-ethnicity due to the different domains, offers unique cases of construction, particularly affected by the last Roman domination before the fall.

The possibility that the property was managed by high-ranking military has finally allowed a connection with the literary papyri of Dura coming precisely from this same block.</p>
