Anıtsal kapı ve Vespasian anıtı / Monumental gate and Vespasian monument
Tiyatronun yanında bulunan anıtsal kapı, Roma döneminde Side'nin merkezine uzanıyordu. Bugün bile şehrin tarihi kısmına giden trafik bu kapıdan geçiyor. Bu kapının bitişiğinde ve MS 4. yüzyıl surları tarafından desteklenen zarif bir bina muhtemelen İmparator Vespasian'ın onuruna dikilmiştir.
Anıtsal kapının şu anki yüksekliği 13,5 metredir, ancak eski zamanlarda yapı çok daha yüksekti. Kapının üstündeki saçaklık, bir zamanlar büyük olasılıkla dört atın çektiği bir quadriga veya iki tekerlekli bir vagonu temsil eden heykeli destekliyordu.
MS 4. yüzyılda kapının kemeri kısmen duvarla çevrilmiş ve surlarda şehre erişim sağlayan daha küçük bir açıklık bırakılmıştır. Halen bu duvarın bazı parçaları ayaktadır, ancak Side'ye girişi kolaylaştırmak için parçası yıkılmıştır. Buna rağmen, anıtsal kapı, özellikle gelen antrenör partileri için hala yerel iletişimde bir darboğazdır.
Vespasian anıtı, arşitravına yerleştirilen yazıt nedeniyle bugünkü adını almıştır. Bu yazıt, anıtın İmparator Vespasian onuruna dikildiğini bildirmektedir. Yapı 5,4 metre yüksekliğinde ve 6,4 metre genişliğindedir. Merkezi, yarı oval bir niş ve yanlarına yerleştirilmiş aediculalardan (küçük tapınaklar olarak hizmet veren nişler) oluşur. Merkezi nişte bir zamanlar İmparator Vespasian'ın heykeli durdu ve sol ve sağ aediculalar kadın figürlerinin heykelleriyle süslendi. Aediculae'nin önünde iki sütun ve arkada iki yarım sütun vardı. Sütunlar Korinth düzeninde yapılmıştır.
Anıtın sol tarafındaki aedicula çok daha iyi durumda. Tüm nişler üçgen alınlıklarla kaplanmış ve orta alınlık Medusa başı ile süslenmiştir. Vespasian anıtı sadece dekoratif ve dini işlev görmekle kalmadı, aynı zamanda bir çeşme işlevi gördü. Pişmiş toprak borular şehrin ana su kemerinden bu yapıya su getirmiştir.
The monumental gate, situated next to the theater, led in Roman times to the center of Side. Even today, traffic to the historical part of the town passes this gate. An elegant building, adjacent to this gate and supported by the ramparts of the 4th century AD, was probably erected in honor of Emperor Vespasian.
The current height of the monumental gate is 13.5 meters, but in the ancient times the structure was much higher. The entablature above the gate once supported the statue representing, most probably, a quadriga or a two-wheeled wagon drawn by four horses.
In the 4th century AD the arch of the gate was partially walled up, and a smaller opening was left in the ramparts, allowing access to the city. Currently, some fragments of this wall are still standing, but its part was demolished in order to facilitate the entry into Side. Despite that the monumental gate is still a bottleneck of local communication, especially for the incoming coach parties.
The Vespasian monument got its current name because of the inscription placed on its architrave. This inscription informs that the monument was erected in honor of Emperor Vespasian. The structure is 5.4 meters high and 6.4 meters wide. It consists of a central, semi-oval niche and to aediculae (the niches that served as small shrines) placed on its sides. In the central niche once the statue of Emperor Vespasian stood, and the left and right aediculae were decorated with the statues of female figures. The aediculae had two columns at the front and two half-columns at the rear The columns were made in the Corinthian order.
The left-side aedicula of the monument is in much better state of preservation. All niches were topped with triangular pediments and the central pediment was decorated with the head of Medusa.
The Vespasian monument played not only decorative and religious function, but also served as a fountain. Terracotta pipes brought water to this structure from the main aqueduct of the city.
Although Brac was invited to this party as well one of the children was a little scared of him so he had to be sent to the sidelines to sit it out. He was very good about it. He just accepted the decision and stayed laying down, untethered and watching, at the side of the hall while all the children played and had fun. Still, there is no mistaking his expression.

The tortoise has greater endurance and can take more damage than other animals.

So here’s the story, when I was younger I had an unhealthy love of all things Batman. I was an avid reader of the comics, and wearer of Under-roos as far back as I can remember. Somewhere along the line, my personal obsession became a full fledged collection. I would receive Batman related items for EVERY Birthday, Christmas etc. Literally every gift I received for a five year span was Batman related. And in my 11 year old mind, every scrap of it was sure to be a collectors item. So my fortune grew. I was like some dragon atop my golden horde, relishing in every trading card or pencil topper I could get my greedy little hands on. Preserved in its protective blister packs it eventually was overlooked for more pressing concerns like girls. Eventually the whole lot of it was moved up to the attic where it remained until a few weeks ago. With my parents moving and the house getting cleaned out, the seal was broken on Batman’s tomb and he is haunting me once again. Time for it to find a new home, Yours!!
Now here’s the rub. By entering the competition, you agree to accept the prize. ALL OF IT. If you want to landfill it, fine, but it’s on your concenince, and I had better not find it in my trash can or scattered down my street.
I would prefer someone to just come and pick it up (Oakland CA) but I am willing to ship it provided you foot the shipping charges and an additional $10 for me to buy some boxes, tape etc. Keep in mind that this collection is bulky and sort of heavy.
Now a lot of what was available was related to the 90’s era films. The Blue and Gray Superfriends costume was abandoned for the more marketable Black costume in the Burton films, and as such a lot of what I have is of that Batman. The Pictures that I have taken show about two thirds of the overall collection, here is a list of some of what is included:
T-Shirts of at least a dozen different styles and sizes. Puzzles, Cereal, Corn Chips! Yes, Batman corn chips!! Pencil Toppers, Erasers, Markers, Remote control Batmobile, Pens and pencils, Board Games, Banners, Posters, Trading Cards, Glasses, Kites, Books, Notebooks, Napkins, Frisbees, Models, Party Favors, Playing Cards, Stuffed Animals, Tighty Whities, Water Bottles, Candy, Valentines, Boxers, Lunch Boxes, Something that I think is Shampoo, Are you starting to get an idea of what a crazy person I am…. I mean was…
