The fortress and ruins of Dara , Oguz, Mardin
The city was garrisoned by Emperor Anastasius in 506 and was an important link in the chain of defensive outposts along the Euphrates protecting the eastern Byzantine border against the Sassanids. Like Samosata and Zeugma, the city also had a significant civilian community. With its strong defensive walls, water channels and cistern, bridges, flood dam, church, baptistery, rock tombs, quarries and cave dwellings, Dara was a
thriving community. The city began to decline in importance in the Early Middle Ages.
