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. 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. 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 plausibl

  • تاريخ كفرصغاب تقع قرية كفرصغاب في قضاء زغرتا في محافظة شمال لبنان، ويعود تاريخها إلى ما قبل المسيحية. وهي مثل باقي غالبية القرى في وادي قاديشا، إذ بدأ تاريخها باستيطان أتباع الطائفة المارونية في جبل لبنان خلال القرن العاشر الميلادي. ووفقًا للتراث الشعبي، فقد تم بناء كنيسة القديس أوتل على أنقاض معبد وثني، وقد كانت المعابد الوثنية موجودة في المنطقة كما هو موجود في النقش باللغة اليونانية الذي يذكر تاريخ 272 قبل الميلاد والموجود في كنيسة مار ماما في إهدن. وهناك معابد أخرى في المنطقة مثل: في إهدن والتي قد تكون قد بنيت على أنقاض كذلك. ويعتبر ما يذكره الموروث الشعبي حول وجود معبد وثني في كفرصغاب أمرًا معقولاً بالنظر إلى الموقع الاستثنائي لكنيسة القديس أوتل.
