Summary
[edit]DescriptionAfrodisias Tetrapylon 066.jpg |
English: The Tetrapylon was a monumental arch that consisted of four rows of four columns each. It was erected in the 2nd century AD and probably formed part of the processional road to the Temple of Artemis. A complete stone-for-stone reconstruction or anastylosis of the structure, using 85% original blocks, was completed in 1991. On the pediment over the west columns it's decorated with relief figures of Eros and Nike hunting among the acanthus leaves. |

My latest pictures are from 2011, in an article in 2019 I read that the "Excavation works on Tetrapylon avenue of the ancient city of Aphrodisias in western Turkey's Aydın province will soon be completed and ready to accept visitors, head of the excavation team said Saturday.
The Tetrapylon avenue connects several locations in the ancient city of Aphrodisias, one of the most well-protected ancient cities in Anatolia, allowing visitors to travel within the city more easily after the excavation works will have been completed.
Roland R.R. Smith from the Oxford University who leads the excavation team told Anadolu Agency that after the excavations are completed visitors will no longer walk around the site instead they will be passing right through the heart of the city."
