Best Answer

Damascus was founded as local trading post that blossomed into a fully fledged city. It linked the coastal cities of Byblos, Tyre, Acre, and Haifa with Northern Mesopotamia. Today, because of hostilities between Syria and Israel and Syria and Lebanon, this function is not entirely served.
