Durand (2015: 14) attributes the abandonment of the A2 baths to one of the 363 CE Cyril Quakes. Additionally, Durand et al. (2018: 607) noted that finds from excavations suggest that the house [V1] was founded between the 1st and 2nd centuries AD, while the material from the destruction / abandonment layers is no later than the 4th century ( al-Muheisen and Villeneuve 2000). In what has been interpreted as a Roman mansio in Area A, Durand et al. (2018: 616) reported that ceramic finds associated with the destruction [tumble] levels [on the western side of open space / courtyard A12] are dated to the late 3rd or early 4th century AD. Interpretation is complicated by subsequent looting of the area. For instance, al-Muheisen and Villeneuve (2000) state that after one of the 363 CE Cyril Quakes struck, the site was abandoned for about two centuries, and then towards the middle of the 6th century, a Christian community settled on this ruin, which it partly transformed into a quarry. Durand (2015: 14) adds that during the Byzantine era, around the 6th century, the bathing building was almost completely dismantled to recover building materials.
