 Decapolis
    ten cities=deka, ten, and polis, a city, a district on the east
    and south-east of the Sea of Galilee containing "ten cities,"
    which were chiefly inhabited by Greeks. It included a portion of
    Bashan and Gilead, and is mentioned three times in the New
    Testament (Matt. 4:25; Mark 5:20; 7:31). These cities were
    Scythopolis, i.e., "city of the Scythians", (ancient Bethshean,
    the only one of the ten cities on the west of Jordan), Hippos,
    Gadara, Pella (to which the Christians fled just before the
    destruction of Jerusalem), Philadelphia (ancient Rabbath-ammon),
    Gerasa, Dion, Canatha, Raphana, and Damascus. When the Romans
    conquered Syria (B.C. 65) they rebuilt, and endowed with certain
    privileges, these "ten cities," and the province connected with
    them they called "Decapolis."
