Site 15: Baal Markod sanctuary Deir el-Qalaa at Beit Mery, Lebanon.

On top of this Phoenician then Roman temple, a Christian Monastery (along with church) was built. This Phoenician temple was dedicated to Baal Markod: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marqod

“Marqod, also known as Baal-Marqod (Lord of the Dance), was a Phoenician god of healing and dancing. His name is from a common Semitic root for dancing; hence Hebrew רָקַד (raqad), Aramaic רקד, and Arabic (raqaṣa), all meaning "to dance." It is unknown if Marqod was considered the creator of dancing or if dancing was merely the proper way to worship the deity. This may be evidence that the Phoenicians were the first ancient Near Eastern culture to have a specific deity devoted to dance.”

>> See the mistake they made again here: they translated the Phoenician word according to Hebrew. On one hand they tell us it can be translated to “raqada” and the other had it’s translated to “raqasha”. The “qa” and the “sha” at the end are very different – see Phoenician alphabet letters; they are written differently and do not look similar at all. Whoever wrote this made this on purpose: you cannot make a mistake in a translation where they letters look different than one another. You make mistakes when the letters are similar to one another. There is a big difference between the “qa” and the “sha” way of writing them.

Here, it’s different; I have 2 very very different meanings given to me by a linguist about the meaning of Markod:

1 – if it’s Raqasha = it means dancer.

2 – if it’s Raqada = it means the runner or the sprinter = the ones who can run.

See how big the change is from each meaning?!

So which one is it? Does it mean: the Dancer Lord (Dancing Lord) - or does it means: the Sprinter Lord (Running Lord). I honestly don’t know. What is certain is the way you interpret this can bring huge changes to understanding this site.

I also don’t think this site was fully excavated. And if I’m not mistaken, it’s considered private property since there is a monastery built on top of it and a church.

You can easily see the phases of construction between the Phoenician blocks which are on the bottom level, then the Roman blocks which seem to have re-used and re-carved the older blocks, and then on top of it all there is the Christian time stone of the monastery and church, including modern day construction.

In the last pictures we can see some sort of water tanks, water basins or “citterns” used in some way for water storage. The location of this sanctuary is in the mountains, not far away from Beirut. This site was known to have been a Phoenician site for healing just like how it was the case with Eshmun temple. Then the Romans came and re-used the site and re-built in the same spot a temple on top of the platform of the old Phoenician temple. Phoenicians used water a lot in their temples.

This is another common point to all of these temple and sites we are seeing, at least to most of them. When you see so many of them, you start to recognize the blocks, which is Phoenician and which is Roman; you can also see a pattern. Most of the megalithic sites in Phoenicia = Lebanon and parts of Syria, have this point in common: the site was originally Phoenician where there was a Phoenician temple. For some strange and unknown reason, the initial temple fell into ruin or collapsed. Then when the Romans came, they recognized what they saw = the ruins = they knew what those were. The Romans understood this is ancient Holy ground. So they built on top of the already existing Phoenician platform, foundations, a new Roman style temple, using most of the time the already existing Phoenician blocks on the site = less troublesome in transporting the building materials to the site. This way, all the builders had to do was to re-carve, re-shape the stones and put them in place to build the new temple. There was no need to transport stones from far away quarries.
