Ottoman period village of Umm Qais, Irbid, Jordan, built late 19th - early 20th century with stones from site of Gadara. The church is on the left and the West Theatre in the centre. The site was founded in the 4th century BC as Gadara, a Hellenistic town, which was developed by the Romans and later by Christians from the 4th century. It was destroyed by earthquakes in the 8th century and the ruins discovered in 1806.
