Dura-Europos Synagogue from eastern Syria, ca. 244 CE. This three-quarter-sized reproduction is on permanent exhibition at the Jewish Museum in New York City.

Dura-Europos is located on the west bank of the Euphrates River, close to the modern location of Qualat al Salihiya. It was a city populated by many different ethnicities at the “crossroads” of the ancient world: the border of the Roman Empire in the first centuries of the Common Era. For over 1,700 years, the site of the ancient synagogue was hidden by sand and embankments in the dry climate of the area, preserving it exceptionally well to enable posterity to study its art and history in depth. The archaeologist Clark Hopkins was greatly surprised when, in the fall of 1932, he saw for the first time the paintings of the synagogue after the dirt had been cleared: “It was a scene like a dream! In the infinite space of clear blue sky and bare gray desert, there was a miracle taking place, an oasis of painting springing up from the dull earth.”

i love it when a fandom agrees on one particular portmanteau ship name and you can tell it’s because the alternatives are all atrocious. like i don’t know anything about glee but even i know that they only call it “klaine” because no one would be able to take it seriously if it was “blurt”
