Arcadian Way, Ephesus


A view of the Arcadian Way, from the Theatre. It was the largest Greek theatre in Asia Minor and is reputed to have accommodated fifty thousand spectators. It also had a great stadium where races were run. Ephesus was a very important port in the Roman province of Asia. Roads ran from Ephesus to the interior cities of the province. It was a center of commerce some of which was generated by the temple of Artemis Diana, a mile and a half north-east of the city. Paul's ministry alarmed those who made their living off the cult. Acts 19:19
