Maalula: An Ancient Hillside Town in Syria, Hanging on to the Past (1910) Nestled in the lush valleys of the Rif Dimashq Governorate in Syria, the ancient hillside town of Maalula remains an enigma, a testament to history and the resilience of its people. Established over 2,000 years ago, Maalula is renowned as the last surviving place where Western Aramaic, the language spoken by Jesus Christ, is still spoken. The photo print, taken in 1910, captures the essence of this historic village, perched precariously on the side of a mountain. The ruins of ancient houses and churches cling to the hillside, their weathered stone walls bearing the marks of time. The narrow, winding streets are lined with abandoned buildings, their doors and windows long closed, a silent reminder of a bygone era. Maalula's location, tucked away in the remote, rugged terrain, has protected it from the ravages of time and the modern world. The town's isolation has allowed it to preserve its unique cultural heritage, including its ancient language, traditions, and way of life. Despite the challenges of modernization and the turmoil that has engulfed much of Syria in recent years, the people of Maalula continue to hold on to their history. They remain committed to preserving their ancient language and passing it down to future generations, ensuring that the legacy of this remarkable place endures. This print offers a glimpse into the past, a window into a world that has remained largely unchanged for centuries. It is a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage that can still be found in the Middle East, despite the challenges and uncertainties of the present.
