 Aleppo - by Carol Miller || Syria Gate
Aleppo ("Halab" or "Chalab" -- "the White City"-"Armi" during the Third Millennium, "Beroia" to the Seleucids, "al-Hamdaniyeh" in the tenth century, "Alep" to the French) is probably older than time, older than human habitation in northern Syria, older than the trade routes across the Near East.
Aleppo, or Halab, was known then as the capital of Yamkhad or Yamhad, a Canaanite kingdom, whose king received a statue of Ishtar from the king of Mari, as a sign of deference, to be displayed in the temple of Hadad in Kilasou.
He called out to God, it was said, and the cow gave great quantities of frothy white milk, as white as the cow's own soft hide, more and more, as the villagers lined up with their goatskins.

                Equally, the editors of Halab sought to “awaken” that class to what they considered the essential rightness and rationality of nationalism and to persuade them of the fallacy of their antediluvian belief that cosmopolitan society was the norm.
   Halab apologized for the disturbance by making an oblique reference to the Armenian genocide of 1915: “We and the Armenians are brothers, we suffered under the same tyranny,” the edition of 27 February 1919 explained.
