After 4 min. we cross the Nahr el^Barghiit (p. 276). We next pass (2 min.) important hurlal-places on the right and left, named Maghdret AblCn^ which has heen translated ^cavern of Apollo* and perhaps correctly, as figures of Apollo haye heen found here. The tomh-chamhers here contain several sarco- phagi and a few wall-paintings. The hasalt sarcophagus of the Sidonian king Eshmunazar, now in Paris, was found in one of them in 1855. — Beyond the (20 min.) Nahr SenVt is a kh&n. In 10 min. more w...e reach Sdyidet el-Maniara (view), with the ruins of a CasiUj perhaps the medisyal Franche Oarde, the platform of which was reached hy a flight of steps ahout 325 ft. in length and 10-13 ft. wide. A grotto a little to the S. of the ruins , now a chapel of St. Mary, was prohahly once a temple of Astarte. A similar temple is situated near the village of MaghdHsheh, 10 min. to the S. ; the cavern here is called the Maghdret el-MakdHra, and contains a hideous female figure sculptured on the left side.
