I was very impressed with the material presented, except for the a-historical use of 'Palestine' for Judaea/ Land of Israel once during the lecture. As an Israeli who might, sadly, never get to visit the wonderful architectural structures still surviving in this country neighbouring my own, this afforded me a chance to see some superb structures with a world-class commentary. I studied Islamic Art and Architecture at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem under Prof. Myriam Rosen-Ayalon, Prof. Hava Lazarus-Yafeh, and Dr. Rachel Milstein, and can readily attest to the quality of the explanation. Thank you.

Dr. Rabbat's lecture on the progression and fusion of the different cultural styles of architecture in Syrian monuments through the millennia is fascinating. It brings into focus the heritage that Syria has lost and continues to lose in this current, prolonged warfare.
