	Syria Gate - About Syria - Apamea by Carol Miller
		Apamea, along with Antiochia, Seleucia and Laodicea - the Tetropolis -- was by this time considered one of the four most important cities in the region, in effect the power base of the Seleucids in Syria.
		Apamea was especially propitious as a military base, with its rich pastureland for the horses and elephants, and the school for the training of the war elephants brought, along with their mahouts, or handlers, from India.
		The Apamea mosaics, by contrast with the pictorial compositions found elsewhere, for example, in Shahba or Antioch, tended to representations of nature: idyllic scenes of ducks and partridges, a large waterwheel, lions pursuing an oryx, a soldier leading his horse through an enchanted garden, a camel convoy, deer in the forest.
