Για την πόλη της Συρίας:
Aleppo = Χαλέπι
Aleppo is the common modern-day English name for the city. It was known in antiquity as Khalpe, Khalibon, and to the Greeks and Romans as Beroea (Βέροια). During the Crusades, and again during the French Mandate for Syria and the Lebanon, the name Alep was used: "Aleppo" is an Italianised version of this. The ancient name of the city, Halab, is also its Arabic name in the modern day. It is of obscure origin.
