Title: The odeon and agora from the secondary entrance
Description: the small theatre in Ephesus, where state affairs were held. It was constructed in the
2nd century AD by the order of Publius Vedius Antonius and his wife Flavia paiana, two wealthy citizens in Ephesus.
It has a capacity of 1450 people. It has 3 doors opening from the stage to the podium. The podium is narrow and one
meter higher than the orchestra section.
Being the most important trade center of Ephesus, Agora was built in the third century B.C in the Hellenistic Period,
but the ruins date from the reign of Caracalla (211-217 C.E)
