Off The Beaten Path: watch out for great sculptures

You may see small fragments of fassades or statues, lying around at many places and so it is worth to explore also the side-streets whenever possible.
The person standing next to this great sculpture may show you the big size of this rock and you may imagine how difficult it was - especially with just the old technical means - to get a stone of this size on the right place of a fassade.
Sorry for the bad quality of the photo - it is a scanning of my Super-8-film, that is actually a slide with a size of just 4mmx8mm

Here is another great detail of a fassade, looking even good , although taken out of one of my old super-8 movies.Sorry for the bad quality of the photo - it is a scanning of my Super-8-film, that is actually like a slide with a size of just 4mmx8mm
I may simply admire these great artists, having been able to produce such works of art with old techniques

Off The Beaten Path: another mainstreet

This is another mainstreet towards the old port of Ephesus.
Simply compare the width of these streets with the ones on my pomeji-page.
In Pompeji only on the big streets 2 carriages might have passed by each other, while here certainly 4-5 carriages could all go next to each other without problem.
On the sides of the street you still may see some columns of the houses and temples.

Very interesting and informative page. The Celsus Library must have been amazing in its day. Best from New Jersey, Bill | starship Wed Apr 2, 2008 12:34 UTC
