Sabinos Alexandros Station.
The set of baetyls or sacred stone blocks were the work of a person named Sabinos, who was the master of religious ceremonies to honour Dusares at Adraa (today Dar’a in Syria). He and other masters visited Petra to honour Dushara here as well (in 2nd or 3rd century AD). The two main niches depict the domed baetyl of Dushara from Adraa and another deity, Atargis on tow lions. Text from notice on site.
