Most viewed - Perge, 3/28/2006

Detail of the Nymphaeum541 viewsA close-up of some of the stonework in front of the fountain.

Roman Gate517 viewsA visit to Perge begins by entering through the Roman Gate, built in the reign of Septimius Severus (193-211 AD).

Heart of Ancient Perge511 viewsAn overview of the Hellenistic Gate, Roman Baths, and Agora.

Stoa Stonework507 viewsCorinthian columns supporting a corner of the stoa.

The Stonehenge of Perge507 viewsThere was no indication on the site as to the purpose of this ringlike structure in the middle of the Agora. A cistern? A shrine? A pool? Who knows?

A Spring Afternoon in Perge506 viewsA view from up by the Nymphaeum, down the main street back toward the Hellenistic Gate.

Capital506 viewsThis view of the column somewhat overlaps with the previous shot; I wanted to capture the top and the figure of Artemis in one picture.

Doorways505 viewsThe Agora hosted many shops and offices, of which only the doorways now remain.

Column, View near Base504 viewsIt took three shots to capture this column in adequate detail. This is the section nearest the base. I don't know the identity of the figure depicted here; my guess is that it's a public official performing a sacrifice to Artemis.

Gate and Acropolis502 viewsIn the background, behind the Hellenistic Gate, looms the Acropolis of Perge. Reportedly most of the remains there date from the Byzantine period.

Eat at Yusuf's498 viewsEels were considered a great delicacy in Roman times (and still are in many places).

Barbarian Onslaught495 viewsSavage heathens from the north approach the sacred shrine of the river god Kestros, with sinister intentions of plundering the gold and jewels which obviously must be hidden therein. Will the river god use his divine powers to protect his turf and strike the rogues dead?
