[edit] Wrong location

The Roman-Byzantine town of Daras was in Mesopotamia, a few miles to the west of Nisibis, and not, as the map suggests, in southern Syria. For the modern town in the latter location, a separate article and a relevant addition in the disambiguation page should be created. Cplakidas 19:01, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] More than one Daraa/Dara

Apparently, there are at least two cities with that name, so please verify what information you are adding, or where you are linking to and from, thanks. Asabbagh 02:19, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
