Leider machen die IS Banditen vor solchen unschätzbaren Werten aus einer vergangenen Zeit nicht halt,ich hoffe nur,das sie diese Zeitzeugen in Ruhe lassen.Liebe Grüße Günther

An ancient place of great beauty and history..... but will it survive the onslaught of those bent on destruction of such places ???

A superb scene

I do not know how long we will still be these archaeological remains, but I'm afraid it will not last long. You have done well to publish this photo. Optimal angle of the shot.
