The Director of the Palmyra Antiquities and Museums Department, Hassan Ali, confirmed that the Wadi al-Suq canal is a known Umayyad waterworks structure. It was uncovered between 1966 and 1968 and dates to around 110 AH. The canal carried water to Qasr al-Hayr al-Sharqi and its agricultural and service facilities. Its main route was about 30 kilometres long, while the network, including its branches, extended for more than 100 kilometres. Floodwaters exposed buried stone and architectural features, but their appearance does not prove that a new site has been discovered. Determining what they are and whether they are connected to the canal will require surveying, excavation and restoration, once the area has been cleared of mines and remnants of war.
