Video description

Aphrodisias was a small Hellenistic and Roman city in the ancient precinct of Caria, on the southwestern coast of Asia Minor. The site is located near the modern village of Geyre, some 230 km from Izmir. Aphrodisias was named after Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love. The city was renamed Stauroupolis ("City of the Cross") during Byzantine times, circa 640 AD. The 4th-Century AD earthquakes flooded the Northern Agora. A new Agora needed to be built, and one was eventually erected east of the Theatre. Colonnaded galleries surrounded the Agora, making it a Peristyle (Tetrastoon). Southwest of the Tetrastoon a Bath structure was found, delineated from the east by the Theatre Baths Imperial Hall. Extending south and westwards, the Baths were not fully excavated yet. A well-preserved Apodyterium, a circular domed Caldarium and a Sudatorium were exposed. The Baths were built most likely after a series of earthquakes Aphrodisias suffered from in the 350s-360s AD.
