    Abstract
    This book offers new insights into the Memorial of Moses on Mount Nebo, one of the most renowned coenobitic monasteries in the Byzantine period in Arabia. Starting from the archaeological data, the author critically reflects on the architectural phases of the basilica, the management and daily life in the monastery. Special attention is also given to pilgrimages to the monastic shrines beyond the River Jordan and their progressive abandonment.
     
    Dieses Buch bietet neue Einblicke in die Memorialkirche für Mose auf dem Berg Nebo, einem der bekanntesten coenobitischen Klöster der byzantinischen Zeit in Arabien. Ausgehend von den archäologischen Daten reflektiert der Autor kritisch die architektonischen Phasen der Basilika sowie die Verwaltung und das tägliche Leben im Kloster. Besonderes Augenmerk wird auch auf Pilgerfahrten zu den Klosterheiligtümern jenseits des Jordan und auf deren fortschreitende Aufgabe gelegt.
