State Agora (Upper Agora) |
|
| |
|
|
| |
This agora measures 160 by 56m and was first
established in the first century AD. The state
monitored the religious and political meetings held
here, and was considered a semi-sacred place. As
with many agoras there was a square temple in the
center. The temple was decorated at the top by
figures of Odysseus' Polyphemos and his adventures.
Later the Pollio fountain was located on the western
edge of the agora. The agora was brought to its
latest configuration in the time of Theodosius
(379-395 AD).
There were two porches on the north and east sides. |
