The Temple of Al-Lat (Arabic: معبد اللات), was an ancient temple located in Palmyra, Syria dedicated to the goddess Al-Lat. The temple was dedicated by the citizen Taimarsu of Palmyra in c. 123–164 A.D. The cult statue was made with an appearance similar to statues of the Greek goddess Athena in Athens. This would be in line with the fact that the Arabian goddess Al-Lat, in the interpretatio graeca customary at the time, was identified with the Hellenistic goddess Athena.

  • معبد اللات، هو معبد قديم يقع في تدمر، سوريا مكرس لعبادة الإلهة اللات. كان المعبد قد كرسه مواطني تايمارسو في تدمر حوالي عام 123-165م. كان تمثال المعبود مصنوع بشكل مشابه لتماثيل الإلهة اليونانية أثينا بمدينة أثينا. هذا من شأنه أن يتماشى مع حقيقة أن الإلهة العربية اللات، هي نفسها الإلهة أثينا اليونانية. أُقيم المعبد الحالي في القرن الثاني الميلادي فوق أطلال معبد من القرن الأول قبل الميلاد. وقد استعملت حجارته ومنحوتاته في بناء أساسات باحات المعبد الجديد.

  • The Temple of Al-Lat (Arabic: معبد اللات), was an ancient temple located in Palmyra, Syria dedicated to the goddess Al-Lat. The temple was dedicated by the citizen Taimarsu of Palmyra in c. 123–164 A.D. The cult statue was made with an appearance similar to statues of the Greek goddess Athena in Athens. This would be in line with the fact that the Arabian goddess Al-Lat, in the interpretatio graeca customary at the time, was identified with the Hellenistic goddess Athena. The temple was closed during the persecution of pagans in the late Roman Empire in a campaign made by Maternus Cynegius, Praetorian prefect of the East, between 25 May 385 to 19 March 388, when the altar of the temple was destroyed and the cult statue of Allat-Athena was decapitated and had the center of its face crushed. Votive gifts of Roman Bronze coins from c. 364–375 and 376–386 illustrate that the sanctuary was still in use at the time of its destruction. In contrast to other temples in Palmyra, the temple of Al-Lat was not converted to a church, but left to decay. Only a podium, a few columns, and the door frame remain. Inside the compound, a giant lion relief –(Lion of Al-lāt) was excavated and, in its original form, was a relief protruding from the temple compound's wall. (en)
