The Cultural Ouv Of The Site Is Based Upon The Continuous Use Of The Area By Monastic Communities (Monasteries And Eremetic Caves) Since The Earliest Years Of Christianity. Among These In Particular Were The 'Maronites' Who Founded Monasteries There And, From 5c, Faced Repeated Persecution For Their 'Heretical' Beliefs. From 7c They Were Effectively Isolated Until The Crusades In Their Mountain Valley From Byzantine Christians By The Spread Of Islam And Set Up Their Own Patriarch In 687. Of The Major Monasteries, Those Of Qannubin And St Anthony Of Quzhayya, Were Traditionally Founded In 4c (Though Possibly In Reality Somewhat Later) Whilst Those Of Our Lady Of Hauqqa And St Elisha Were Founded In 13 And 14c Respectively
