EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the ancient ruins of the Little Theatre (Odion) in Selcuk, near the ancient city of Ephesus in modern-day Turkey. Dating back to circa 1902, this image offers a glimpse into the rich history and archaeological significance of this remarkable site. The Little Theatre, also known as Odion, is one of the smallest and best-preserved ancient theatres in the region. Its semi-circular structure, adorned with intricately carved arches, once held an audience of up to 1,500 people. The theatre is nestled against the sloping hillside, surrounded by lush greenery and the ruins of other ancient structures. The natural amphitheater-like setting provides a striking contrast to the more formal architecture of the theatre itself. The image also reveals the vibrant colors of the Turkish landscape, with the blue sky and green foliage contrasting beautifully with the weathered stone of the theatre. The ancient city of Ephesus, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, was once a major cultural and commercial center in the ancient world. It was home to a diverse population, including Greeks, Romans, and Jews, and was known for its Temple of Artemis, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Today, the ruins of Ephesus and the Little Theatre (Odion) continue to attract visitors from around the world, offering a fascinating glimpse into the past and a reminder of the enduring power of human creativity and ingenuity.
