Figure 3: Virtual reconstruction of the nymphaeum 
Fig. 2 shows images of this building in its current state (result 
of the ongoing anastylosis project). 
Fig. 3 shows images of the overall reconstruction. The goal of 
this building clearly was to impress. It is a bit atypical in that 
most nymphaea of this period were two-storied buildings. This 
building only has one story however, perhaps due to the 
constant risk of earthquakes. The building stands on a limestone 
podium rising 1.85 m above the agora which it flanks at the 
northern side. The total length of the podium is about 28 m.
