Nahr Barbar
Locality
Pharpar is a biblical river in Syria. It is the less important of the two rivers of Damascus mentioned in the Book of Kings, now generally identified with the Nahr al-Awaj, also called Awaj, although if the reference to Damascus is limited to the city, as in the Arabic version of the Old Testament, Pharpar would be the modern Taura. Nahr Barbar is situated 6 km north of Al Burnuş.
