Years: 244 - 387
The people of Greater Syria had developed irrigation techniques, the alphabet, and astronomy by the time the Romans arrived.
The emperor Constantine in 324 moves his capital from Rome to Byzantium, renaming it Constantinople (present-day Istanbul).
From there the Romans rule Greater Syria, dividing it into two provinces: Syria Prima, with Antioch as the capital and Aleppo the major city; and Syria Secunda, ruled frequently from Hamah.
