Dodona (Doric Greek: Δωδώνᾱ, Dōdṓnā, Ionic and Attic Greek: Δωδώνη,[1] Dōdṓnē) in Epirus in northwestern Greece was an oracle devoted to a Mother Goddess identified at other sites with Rhea or Gaia, but here called Dione, who was joined and partly supplanted in historical times by the Greek deity Zeus.
The shrine of Dodona was regarded as the oldest Hellenic oracle, possibly dating to the second millennium BCE according to Herodotus. Situated in a remote region away from the main Greek poleis, it was considered second only to the oracle of Delphi in prestige. Priestesses and priests in the sacred grove interpreted the rustling of the oak (or beech) leaves to determine the correct actions to be taken. According to a new interpretation, the oracular sound originated from bronze objects hanging from oak branches and sounded with the wind blowing, similar to a wind chime.[2] Aristotle considered the region around Dodona to have been part of Hellas and the region where the Hellenes originated.[3] The oracle was first under the control of the Thesprotians before it passed into the hands of the Molossians.[4] It remained an important religious sanctuary until the rise of Christianity during the Late Roman era.

I've used a very popular leading name brand of liquid calcium for years...Mineralife is as good if not better. It is less expensive; you get much more for your money. I love not having to drink tablets .I will continue to use Mineralife’s brand of calcium with confidence. This company definitely is a winner!

"The people of Lovelock have one of the nation's only round courthouses. Pershing County officials approached Frederick J. DeLongchamps, by then the architect of six Nevada courthouses, and asked for a design that would be low in price but distinctive in appearance. As a solution, DeLongchamps designed a round courthouse, patterning it after Thomas Jefferson's library on the University of Virginia campus. The circle-over-hexagon design includes a circular interior hallway and a round courtroom decorated with Corinthian pilasters. A broad, sweeping concrete staircase leads to the main floor of the Beaux-Arts classical structure. Its entrance includes a pedimented portico supported by six Ionic columns. Doric pilasters separate the main story windows. Cream-colored brick and terra-cotta finish the exterior. A shallow dome crowns the roof and provides the courtroom with a dramatic, soaring ceiling."

The Temple of Artemis at Sardis was one of the largest shrines of the Classical World, only three other Ionic temples rivalled it for size, the Artemis Temple at Ephesus, the Apollo Temple at Didyma, and the Hera Temple on Samos. (all of which bar Samos we visited on this trip).
Despite it's ruined condition with only two of the columns surviving at full height the enormous scale of the building continues to inspire awe, several Ionic capitals stand at ground level and give a sense of the fine detail as well as impressive size.
At the rear of the temple is a small ruined Byzantine chapel, suggesting the great building must have been converted to Christian use before it's eventual demise.
The temple we see today was begun c300 BC but left unfinished until the Roman period, when renovation was also necessary following earthquake damage. The decorative finishes were never completed, as is attested by the unfluted columns.

From the east portico front. I only noticed from the photo that there is some damage to the egg and dart mouldings on the abacus.
My husband is taking Mineralife’s copper supplement. His copper level was 40, almost completely gone. He's been taking it for over 2 months now and he is actually feeling better than ever. The doc seems to think its from the copper supplement and is amazed at how quick he improved. Ionic minerals are the way to go, hands down

My comrade is into archery so he had to point out every depiction of Diana/Artemis there was. There were a lot. He would then comment on how realistic the bow was.
Also, I pronounce Artemis as "Atermis".

The magnificent Temple of Apollo at Didyma was the third largest of all ancient classical temples and home to a famous oracle mentioned by Homer in the Iliad. Though there has been a temple on this site for much longer the bulk of the present building dates from the 3rd century BC though building carried on through the Roman period and was in fact never finished.
Today, and in contrast to some of it's larger siblings (Ephesus and Samos) it remains in a good state of preservation; only three of the columns remain complete but the rest of the structure is remarkably complete up to almost half it's original height. We thus have a better impression of the internal layout of the sanctuary here than at almost any other temple of the ancient world.
The scale is enormous, and though most of the columns are mere stumps they give a good impression of the sheer scale of the completed edifice. Many of the column bases at the main east facade have ornate decorative mouldings. At the west end (the back wall of the temple) a collapsed column has been left lying where it fell.
The interior of the Temple is entered from the portico via two tunnel-like passages that emerge in the 'cella', the heart of the sanctuary that in this case was left open to the sky like courtyard.

The stoa had 35 Ionic columns at the front and 19 shops at the back. Built in 50 AD by Tiberius Claudius Sophanes.

I also think that I might need to invest in a new 18-55mm lens.
