ruins of Kanawat - 100 piastre
This stamp honors Syria's deep classical history by featuring the archaeological ruins of Kanawat ("Kanaouat"), an ancient city located in the volcanic region of Jabal al-Druze. The illustration focuses on the monumental, freestanding Roman columns rising against a rugged mountain landscape, symbolizing the country's rich historical depth and architectural endurance. Superimposed over this heritage site is a twin-engine aircraft, creating a dialogue between the region's ancient identity as a crossroads of civilizations and its modern integration into twentieth-century aviation networks. Ornate, complex arabesque panels frame the vignette, anchoring this "Poste Aérienne" expression of progress within the continuous lineage of traditional Syrian craftsmanship.
