Roman Odeon of Patras, Greece ( Vlog #23 )

Показать описание
The Roman Odeon of Patras was built before the Odeon of Athens (161 AD), during the Augustus period on the first half of the 2nd century BC, and it is considered to be the second best decorated Odeon after the one of Athens.
It is located in an elevated position in Ano Poli on the west side of the ancient acropolis and the medieval castle between Germanos Str. and Sotiriadou Str.
Inside the Odeon, which was contiguous to the ancient Agora, there was a statue of Apollo, which was constructed by the spoils of the war against the Gauls in 279 AD, when Patras had helped the Aitolians.
Its external high wall had five entrances towards the skene (scene) and two towards the backstage. The proskenion (front of the stage) was accessible by two flanked built staircases. The orchestra was stone paved and a semi-circular parapet separated it from the koilon (seating sections), which opens towards the south. The scene’s floor is mosaic.
