It was a massive building, entered by a propylaea, or entranceway, leading to a hexagonal forecourt and then to a rectangular main court 343 feet (104.5 meters) long and 338 feet (103 meters) wide. The court was surrounded by elaborately decorated exedrae (semicircular benches) and opened onto a portico whose 84 granite columns were brought from Aswan in Upper Egypt. On a high terrace at the western end of the court stood the sanctuary, a Corinthian building with 54 columns—10 on each front and 19 on each flank, each 62 feet (19 meters) high and 7.5 feet (2.3 meters) in diameter. The temple was dedicated to three deities: the Syrian thunder god Hadad, equated with Jupiter; the Syrian nature goddess Atargatis, equated with Venus; and a youthful god, probably a vegetation spirit, equated by the Greeks with Hermes the shepherd, hence by the Romans with Mercury. Originally a purely agricultural cult was practiced there; later it seems to have developed aspects of a personalistic mystery religion, worship of the youthful god apparently having acquired orgiastic features.
