Ancient Bacchus statues found amid Transjordan ruins

Excavations led by Professor Frederic Hrozny reveal ruined Bacchus statues and wine press remnants in the Hauran region south of Damascus, showing relics of pre Biblical moralism. Fragments suggest Greek influence and Dionysos worship, with inscriptions and basalts indicating a complex mix of cultures in an era long before modern borders.
