Rhaphanaea

Rhaphanaea (Raphanea, Italian Rafanea) is a Catholic titular see. The original diocese was in Syria Secunda, a suffragan of Apamea. Rhaphanaea is mentioned in ancient times only by Josephus, who says that in that vicinity there was a river which flowed six days and ceased on the seventh, probably an intermittent spring now called Fououar ed-Deir, near Rafanieh, a village of the vilayet of Alep in the valley of the Oronte. The ancient name was preserved.

Located at 34.9328, 36.3767 (Lat. / Lng.), about 3 miles away.
