Context: Tadmor, also known as Palmyra, is a city of significant historical and biblical importance.

The city is renowned for its impressive architecture and became a symbol of wealth and power. In later history, Tadmor, or Palmyra, rose to prominence as a major cultural and trading hub in the Roman Empire.
