Al-Nayrab

Al-Nayrab (Arabic: النيرب) is a town in Syria, to the south-east of the city of Aleppo in northern Syria. With urban expansion, the village was gradually incorporated into the city of Aleppo, becoming one of its neighbourhoods. According to the Syria Central Bureau of Statistics, al-Nayrab had a population of 10,018 in the 2004 census. Al-Nayrab is also an important archaeological site, having been excavated in 1891 by Charles Clermont-Ganneau and again in 1926–27 by A-G Barrois and Bertrand Carrière.
