Abstract:
When I have chosen (The City of Sur from the Islamic Conquest until the Seventh Century A.H.)I had to be obliged to the conducting of work towards that work in a decent war. I had to tackle the city from all angles : politically, economically, socially in poverty and prosperity. I have passed through the stages of the life in the city from the beginning of the Rashdi Caliphate )orthodox caliphs (and then passing through the degeneration era to the weakness which made it difficult from the Fatimid state to protect the fortified borderline cities and that has made them cede the city to the Turk leaders, who worked hard to protect them from the Crusade attacks. Thus, the affiliation of the city went to the protégé of the Tolonian and Akhshedia states. The weakness of the later led to the fall of the latter led to the conquest of the Levant in the hands of Saladin. This period was one of the most dangerous periods as far as the city age is concerned. This is because those who escaped the conquered cities agglomerated in the city of Sur and it has become a fort from the forts of the Crusades. The city has been exposed to years of devastation as it represents a coastal city on shore from which the enemy can penetrate. From the other aspects, we concluded that the city is one of the best cities. It was known in the fishery and pottery making and textile. It is a Shiite stronghold in Lebanon. Through the study we found that the city of Sur is prosperous in trade, industry, and intellectuality. We concluded that the Sur community was prevailed in peace and simplicity. Now, we have ended the research I mention the most important findings of the study like that the city of Sur was a cradle of civilization Phoenician cities. The matter of rope was imported from Egypt which is used in ship making. The wood was brought from the nearby forests in Carthage city, which competed with Rome in the command of the Mediterranean Sea since the sixth century. The Suris excelledin textile and weaving and the purple dye which the Phoenicians kept secret to monopolize the formulae. The water passages which arrived at the city of Sur. Sur was one of the oldest cities in coinage and the spread of the Sur dinar until the very last day of its fall indicates its richness. Since the year (69 - 79 BC) Sur began to mintcoins as an autonomous entity. In the era of Emperor Trajan (119 - 98 BC) the Sur was known for mintage and the Emperor Hadrian a Metropolis. The Emperor Siphrios raised the degree to a colony and they were regarded as Roman citizens. The paper industry was also known in Sur.
