Abstract
This paper sheds more light on Udhruh during the Byzantine and Islamic periods, based on both historical sources and archaeological data. It presents new unpublished Arabic-Christian inscriptions that were found inside the site's Byzantine church, which confirm the continuity of Christianity in the region during the Islamic period.
