Aphrodisias Aphrodite temple Entrance
Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: A very informative site about the Aphrodisias Excavations states "What remains today of the Temple of Aphrodite is really the Church into which it was converted in late antiquity. Both the Temple and the Church were imposing monuments whose separate forms can be reconstructed in detail." I think for the average visitor it will the hard to separate the two, to me it felt mainly as a temple, if only because of the many fine columns. But some elements obviously remained of the church. Temples did not have aan apse with a "choir" area. The cross on some ornaments does not smack of Aphrodite. When I felt on save ground I used church-terms, for the rest I just show the "temple". |
