| |
| The '''Bab Tuma''' (English: ''Gate of Thomas'') is the northeastern gate of the Old City of [[Damascus]] in [[Syria]]. | |
| | |
| ==History==
| |
| In 1191, this gate was the means by which the [[Assassins|Assassin]] [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]] entered Damascus during his [[Hunt for the Nine|hunt]] for the [[Templars|Templar]] black arms merchant [[Tamir]]. As the [[Saracens]] [[guards|guarding]] the gate would not have permitted the entry of an Assassin, Altaïr sneaked in by [[blending]] with a group of [[scholars]]. The scholars assisted Altaïr in gratitude for rescuing one of their own from the harassment of Saracen soldiers just moments earlier.
| |
| | |
| Altaïr returned to Damascus twice more through this gate that year when he was tasked to kill two other Templars, the Merchant King [[Abu'l Nuqoud]] and the scholar [[Jubair al Hakim]].
