520 |a A church has been uncovered at Abila in northern Jordan having an architectural plan similar to that of the Church of the Nativity at Bethlehem. Dubbed the Five-Aisle Church, it is one of the most unusual examples of Byzantine architecture to be found in Jordan. Until the discovery of the Church, this ancient city was known mainly for its beautiful mosaics and its association with the league of cities known in the Bible as the Decapolis.
