Omrit, Archaeological site in Golan Heights, Israel.
The temple complex at Omrit contains three sequential temple structures built atop one another, featuring white marble columns and Corinthian architectural elements.
The Roman temple at Omrit, constructed around 20 BCE under Herod the Great's reign, served as a testament to Roman authority in the region.
The temple's construction techniques demonstrate the integration of Roman architectural practices with local building methods through its stone-cutting patterns and structural design.
Located 4 kilometers southwest of Banias, the archaeological site sits on a raised platform offering views across the Hula Valley and Mount Hermon.
The excavations revealed an advanced water supply system with an aqueduct that transported water from northeast sources to support the temple complex.
