Al Andarin, ancient Androna, Vol. I, Survey und Excavations 1997-2006, The circuit walls and the barracks, with contributions of Güler Ates and Peter Knötzele

安德罗纳，现代安达林，在叙利亚中部是一个由世纪后期的mansio，后来证明作为一个村庄（科梅）。它的大面积（160公顷）和建筑物的纪念性方面（两个电路墙，十个教堂，一个公共浴室）被带回到在其环境中创建广泛的灌溉系统。安德罗纳是叙利亚中部300多个村庄中第一个被挖掘出来的村庄。1997年，德国团队组织了一个国际合作，一个英国团队负责重建遗址外的灌溉系统，一个叙利亚团队在中心挖掘早期阿拉伯浴室。英国研究小组的主要成果发表在一份初步报告中，最终出版物正在筹备中。德国团队从1997年开始对该遗址进行大地测量和深入的表面研究，挖掘了Kastron的大部分，两个内部的大门，以及外部电路墙和Androna北方的一个住宅群。这些是我们对安德罗纳防御组织和纪念碑布局的研究结果：内电路墙（玄武岩）是较老的一个，他封闭了一个约90公顷的网站，成长于第五世纪。外墙-结合日晒砖与玄武岩-扩大了网站的面积达160公顷。电路墙的年表和问题，在什么时候内墙被删除导致该地区的历史情况在第五世纪的下半叶和几十年后的安提阿540 N的破坏。卡斯特龙的建造（完成于公元559年）位于安德罗纳市中心的一座建筑--由安德罗纳居民托马斯捐赠--与叙利亚的大城市紧密相连，同时也与当地的传统紧密相连。下层房间与军事功能和上层起居室的结合，用进口大理石、斑岩和玻璃马赛克装饰，对6世纪下半叶城乡联系和活动的重建至关重要，连同早期的奥马亚浴场，Kastron在铭文和小发现中集中介绍了7和8世纪Androna的情况。随着它的再利用到14世纪，它仍然是我们的主要来源，为历史的安德罗纳在阿拉伯时代也为以下几个世纪。关于主要建筑的纪念性布局的调查以及电路墙和军营领域的挖掘为该遗址在第五和第六世纪的历史创造了新的基础，讨论其作为"避难所“之一的功能，城墙外灌溉系统的年表和七世纪阿拉伯征服后安德罗纳的情况。

Androna, modern al Andarin, in Central Syria was a mansio by the late 3rd Century and later attested as a village (kome). Its large size (160 ha) and the monumental aspect of its buildings (two circuit walls, ten churches, a public bath) was led back to the creation of an extensive irrigation System in its environment. Androna is the first of more than 300 hundred villages in Central Syria studied by excavations. In 1997 the German team organized an international collaboration between a British team, occupied with the reconstruction of the irrigation system outside the site and a Syrian team, excavating an Early arabic bath in the centre. The main results of the British team are published in a preliminary report -, the final publication is in preparation. The German team began 1997 with the geodetical relevation of the site and intensive surface studies, excavated a greater part of the Kastron, two gates of the inner as of the outer circuit wall and a housecomplex in the northern part of Androna. These are the results of our study of the defensive organisation and monumental layout of Androna : The inner circuit wall (basalt) is the older one and he enclosed a site of about 90 ha, grown up in the fifth Century. The outer wall - combining sunbaken bricks with basalt - enlarged the area of the site up to 160 ha. The chronology of the circuit walls and the question, at which time the inner wall was removed lead to the historical situation of the region in the second half of the fifth century and the decades after the destruction of Antioch 540 n. Chr. The construction of the Kastron (finished 559 A.D.) in the centre of Androna - a donation of Thomas, inhabitant of Androna - is closely linked to the great Syrian cities and at the same time closely bound to local traditions. The combination.of lower rooms with military functions and upper living rooms with rich decorations in imported marble, porphyr and glass-mosaics is of extreme importance for the reconstruction of urban-rural contacts and activities in the second half of the 6th century, Together with the Early Omayyad bath the Kastron informs in inscriptions and small finds intensively about the Situation of Androna in the 7th and 8th Century. With its reuse up to the 14th Century it remains our main source for the history of Androna in arabic times also for the following centuries. The survey about the monumental layout of the main buildings and excavations in the field of the circuit walls and the barracks have created a new base for the history of the site in the fifth and sixth century, for the discussion of its function as one of the « villes de refuge », for the chronology of the irrigation system outside the walls and for the situation of Androna in the time after the arabic conquest of the seventh century.
