The Ain Dara temple, located near the village of Ain Dara, northwest of Aleppo, Syria, is an Iron Age Syro-Hittite temple. According to the excavator Ali Abu Assaf, it was in existence from 1300 BC until 740BC and remained “basically the same" during the period of the Solomonic Temple’s construction (1000-900BC) as it had been before, so that it predates the Solomonic Temple.
The surviving sculptures depict lions and sphinxes…
Massive footprints are carved into the floor; whether of gods or humans or animals is debatable….
Also left to speculation is to whom the temple is dedicated. Ain Dara may have been devoted to Ishtar, goddess of fertility; or dedicated to the female goddess Astarte, or the deity Ba’al Hadad.
