Ephesus- Domitian Square's Memmius Monument

This monument was constructed during the reign of Augustus in the 1st century A.D by Memmius, the grandson of dictator Sulla, to remind the people that a three year revolt throughout Asia Minor that had lasted three years was put down by Sulla in 88 B.C. The figures of Memmius's father and grandfather [Sulla] endure on the blocks today, nearly two thousand years later.
