I highly recommend reading Christine Strube’s account of her life's work in Syria! Besides plenty of suspense (like her travelling through war-torn Beirut or spending the night in a Syrian prison!) it focuses on her studies in the Limestone Massif and the excavations at Andarin.
Christine Strube, one of the most eminent Byz archeologists, has published a memoir-style, open access account of her work in Syria (ger/engl) - even more timely now that many of the sites she worked on suffered destruction.

In addition to her important research in #Syria and #Constantinople, Christine Strube has also been a pioneer for women in #EarlyChristianArcheology and #ByzantineArtHistory. She was the first woman to receive a professorship and a member of @dai_weltweit Zentraldirektion. 🙏
