Priene; Mountain City

The first ancient city Barbara, Jeff, and I saw was Priene. Which was a port city with three levels. The lower level for the most part remains unexcavated and the upper level atop the mountain isn't open to tourists. So we explored the middle level.


The Theatre


The Acropolis


The Temple of Athena


This wheel was on every site, if someone knows what it means please let me know. I'm really curious.
