History of Kfarsghab : ウィキペディア英語版 | History of Kfarsghab
Kfarsghab in Zgharta District in the Mount Lebanon Governorate of Lebanon predates Christianity. However, like most villages in the Qadisha valley, Kfarsghab's history began with the settlement of the Maronites in Mount Lebanon during the 10th Century. According to the popular tradition, the church of Saint Awtel was built on the ruins of a pagan temple. Pagan temples existed in this region as attested in the Greek inscription mentioning the date 272 AD found in the Mar Mama church in Ehden.〔Yammine, Y.: ''Daleel Ehden'', page 14.〕 Other temples may have existed in the region, such as the monastery of Mar Sarkis and Bakhos in Ehden, which may have been built atop ruins.〔Abi-Khalil, S.: ''Tarikh Al-Qiddissayn Sarkis wa Bakhos Ehden'', page 9〕 Given the exceptional location of Saint Awtel's Church built on a promontory, the popular tradition about the existence of a pagan temple in Kfarsghab is plausible. ==Around 1000 AD== A possible reference to Kfarsghab may appear in a letter of the Cairo Geniza dating between 1011 and 1037 AD.〔WArdini, E.: ''A Dictionary of Lebanese Place-NAmes'', page 263.〕
