Description
Odeon of Herodes Atticus, an ancient roman amphitheater on the south slope of the Acropolis with the modern metropolis of Athens, Greece in the background. Black and white.
It was built in AD 161 by Herodes Atticus in memory of his Roman wife, Aspasia Annia Regilla. It was originally a steep-sloped theatre with a three-story stone front wall and a wooden roof made of expensive cedar of Lebanon timber. It was used as a venue for music concerts with a capacity of 5,000. It lasted intact until it was destroyed and left in ruins by the Heruli in AD 267.
