"Monument","","","At the east end of the Central Shops, immediately to the south of the apheteria (starting lines) of the Classical and Hellenistic stadia (running tracks), the original Circular Monument may date to the Classical period. The preserved structure is Roman. In its earliest Roman phase it consisted of a raised circular platform, 2 meters high and 9 meters in diameter, supporting a limestone column drum 2.15 meters in diameter. The platform was subsequently trimmed back on its north and west sides for the application of marble revetment. When the Central Shops were constructed, the west side was also cut back to accommodate the easternmost shop.  Oscar Broneer, who believed the original column was much taller, suggested this monument was the one depicted on Corinthian coins of the Antonine and Severan periods. ; ; The Circular monument was excavated in 1892 and 1896 but is actually one of the earliest monuments at Corinth to have been recorded.  A second, upper, member of the column was drawn by Sebastian Ittar, architect to Lord Elgin, on a visit to Corinth in 1802. On the basis of this evidence, William Dinsmoor restored a much shorter column and dissociated the monument from that shown on the coins.","","","Corinthia | Ancient Corinth | Central Area | Forum | Central Shops | Circular Monument","Circular Monument","","","Corinth:Image:slide  4145::/Corinth/Photos/slides/4000-4999/sl4145.jpg::1800::1219","","Corinth","Corinth:Monument:Circular Monument"
"Monument","","","The oldest portions of the City wall date from the late Geometric period. This early section was found at the edge of the terrace at the Potters’ Quarter about 1.5 kilometers west of the museum at Corinth. It is not known if this early wall belonged to a locally fortified part of Corinth or was part of a much more extensive early wall.; The Classical walls incorporated the acropolis, Acrocorinth. From the east side of the acropolis, the wall followed the summits of three low hills descending towards the Xerias River valley.  It then traced the line of the river terrace northwards to a point east of the amphitheater. There is evidence that it here turned west at least for a short distance before descending to the lower terrace. It followed the edge of this terrace westwards for a distance of about 2.7 kilometers. From the west side of the acropolis the wall descends a rocky ridge northwards past the Potters’ Quarter to the lower terrace. In all, the wall is about 10 kilometers long.; Traces of the long walls connecting the city wall to the sea have been followed and, in places, excavated. These walls contained and protected the ancient harbor at Lechaion and cut the east-west traffic across the plain. The eastern line extended from the northeast corner of the city enceinte 1.8 kilometers to a point west of the Prehistoric site of Korakou. The western line ran from the area of the Baths of Aphrodite 2.4 kilometers to a point west of the Lechaion Basilica church.","","","Corinthia | Ancient Corinth | City Wall","City Wall","","","Corinth:Image:slide  3499::/Corinth/Photos/slides/3000-3999/sl3499.jpg::1800::1169","","Corinth","Corinth:Monument:City Wall"

"Monument","","","A series of buildings flanking the street descending the terrace immediately to the east of the theater was excavated in the 1980’s by C. K. Williams II. Two of the buildings (Buildings 1 and 3) were food shops catering to the theater goers. The north room of both buildings contained domed ovens and large quantities of animal bone were found in the south room of Building 3. They were built in the 1st century A.D. and were destroyed by an earthquake sometime between A.D. 125 and A.D. 150. Buildings 5 and 7, higher up to the south, were supported by a buttressed wall separating them from the caterers. These buildings were related to religious activity including worship of the gods Aphrodite, Isis, Serapis and Cybele.  The walls of Building 7 Room 2 were decorated with wall painting. This was of white panels framed by tall Corinthian columns, each containing a small figure of a deity including Hercules, Juno, Jupiter, Minerva and Venus.; Built in 1st century, Buildings 5 and 7 suffered the same fate as Buildings 1 and 3 but were refurbished and continued in use until they were destroyed by earthquake in the later 4th century. The debris from this quake was cleared from the street, and it was open to traffic through the 5th century.; East Theater Street and a broad decumanus (an east-west street) terminated at an open paved court east of the theater scene building. The courtyard has an inscription reused in the floor. The letter cuttings were designed to receive cast bronze letters. It reads ""ERASTUS PRO AEDILITATE S P STRAVIT"" or ""Paved by Erastus at his own expense in return for his aedileship.” A chamberlain (oikonomos) of Corinth called Erastus was mentioned by the Apostle Paul in Romans 16.23. Many believe the inscription and Paul’s letter refer to the same person.","","","Corinthia | Ancient Corinth | Theater District | East of Theater","East of Theater","","","Corinth:Image:slide  3795::/Corinth/Photos/slides/3000-3999/sl3795.jpg::1800::1179","","Corinth","Corinth:Monument:East of Theater"

"Monument","","","The Forum, lying at the heart of the Roman City was the commercial and administrative center of the city. Its orientation conforms to the surviving Classical and Hellenistic buildings, such as the South Stoa, the Southeast Building and the Temple of Apollo, which were refurbished for use in the Roman Period. The entire area, almost 200 m. long and 100 m. wide, was paved with slabs made of hard Jurassic limestone. It was divided into upper (south) and lower (north) levels by the Central Shops which flanked the “Rostra” or “Bema”. In Late Antiquity the two levels were united by a broad series of steps which replaced the shops.; The buildings around the Forum were largely administrative and religious. They include three large civil basilicas, rows of shops, temples  and offices.","","","Corinthia | Ancient Corinth | Central Area | Forum","Forum","","","Corinth:Image:slide  0950::/Corinth/Photos/slides/0001-0999/sl0950.jpg::1800::1196","","Corinth","Corinth:Monument:Forum"
