Pella Jordan represents one of ten Decapolis cities that founded during
the Hellenistic period and became powerful under Roman jurisdiction.
it’s expanded to its largest state during the reign of the Roman Empire.
Pella in Jordan has been almost continuously occupied since Neolithic times. During the Hellenistic period, the town formed with other like-minded towns in the region a political and cultural league known as the “Decapolis”,
an alliance that grew in stature and economic importance to become regionally influential under Roman jurisdiction.
However, Pella in Jordan expanded to its largest size during the Byzantine period, when it was a bishopric in the province of Palaestina Secunda.
In Islamic times, after 635 CE, the town became part of the Jund al-Urdunn (Province of Jordan), but in time was negatively impacted by natural calamities and eclipsed by the geopolitical successes of the nearby towns of Amman, Beisan and especially Tabariyah (Tiberias).
The increased popularity of its strategic location on the routes of trade between Jordan and Palestine
and from there to Syria, where it controlled the important roads in the north of Jordan and Palestine,
including the Trans-Gilead road: Bisan, Fahel, Ajloun Amman: Bisan, Fahl, Jerash, Amman.
This city is famous for its water springs in its valley known in the valley of the banana grove (Shajwa),
which the Umayyad considered it from his property.
The city’s reputation has grown internationally in the Middle East, Europe, and the United States.
It was also held at the first peace conference in the second millennium BC,
and after the battle of Megiddo which took place between the Pharaohs and
the Hittites hosted by the king of Pella at that time
The sugar cane cultivation in the Roman era and its proximity to the Mediterranean Sea (70 km)
also gained significant importance between the alliance of the cities of the Decapolis.
