Damascus, a metropolitan area of six million people, is the capital and the largest city of Syria. Located in the southwestern part of the country, and inland from the Mediterranean coast, Damascus has a semi-arid climate in the Syrian Desert.

The English/Latininzed name “Damascus” originated in Aramaic and means “a well watered place.”

Archeological evidence indicated the area of Damascus may have been occupied since the second half of the seventh millennium BC, possibly around 6300 BC. According to Flavius Josephus, a 1st century Jewish historian, Damascus was founded by Uz, the son of Aram (son of Shem, son of Noah).
