The Oxford Reference dictionary gives “Kastron: (κάστρον), also kastellion and phrourion, fortress or citadel. Since fortifications became the main external sign of cities, the term kastron came to denote the city as a whole.” Indeed there is a large (about 150 x 140 meters) fortress (Kastron - or Kastrom – Mefa’a) that gave its name to what now is called Umm ar-Rasas (er-Rasas can also be found). In this category pictures taken at or within that fortress are collected. Three inscriptions in the Church of St. Stephen confirm that Kastron Mefa’a was the name for the whole city at the time. Within the southeast corner of the fortress two churches were found, next to each other. For good information see https://universes.art/en/art-destinations/jordan/umm-er-rasas/roman-fort .
