Hellenistic Theatre

TIME : 2016/2/19 2:49:48

Hack across the hillside in a westerly direction from the Martyrium of St Philip the Apostle and eventually you'll come to a completely ruined Hellenistic theatre along unmarked goat tracks. Looking down you'll see the 2nd-century agora, one of the largest ever discovered. Marble porticoes with Ionic columns surrounded it on three sides, while a basilica closed off the fourth.
