Didyma, Türkei. Antike Bauabläufe am Apollontempel. Die Arbeiten der Jahre 2021 und 2022

Resumen

The construction site of the ancient Temple of Apollo in Didyma existed for five centuries, with interruptions, without the monumental structure being completed. Therefore, the preserved architectural structure contains blocks from different phases of construction when work was halted, giving us insights into the diverse building processes of an ancient construction site. Furthermore, important inscriptions have survived, which document as building reports the construction process of the temple for individual years. The current project »Neuedition der Bauberichte von Didyma«, based on cooperation of epigraphists and building researchers, is therefore investigating unresolved questions about the ancient construction site and the construction processes of the Hellenistic temple.
