EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Ancient Wonders of Butrint: The Cyclopean Walls and the Lions Gate" 2. Description: This image showcases the ancient Cyclopean walls of Butrint, a UNESCO World Heritage Site located in the Republic of Albania. Dating back to the IV century BC, these impressive structures bear testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of this remarkable place. The photograph focuses on the Lions Gate, one of the six entrances to the ancient city. The gateway is adorned with an intricately carved architrave, featuring a lion devouring a bull. This symbolic representation of power and strength is a common motif in Hellenistic art and architecture, reflecting the Greek influence on the civilization that once thrived in this region. The Cyclopean walls, renowned for their massive stone blocks, were believed to have been built without the use of mortar, a feat of engineering that continues to intrigue and inspire awe. The rugged terrain and wild surroundings add to the mystique of this ancient city, which has remained largely untouched by the passage of time. The image invites us to explore the depths of human history, as we ponder the lives of those who once walked through the Lions Gate and marveled at the Cyclopean walls of Butrint. This photograph is a reminder of the enduring power of art and architecture, which transcends the boundaries of time and space, and connects us to the civilizations of the past. 3.
