@WorldScholar_ Fascinating writup! I visited it a few weeks ago, specifically to see the aqueduct. Amazing engineering to last so long, even without famous Roman concrete. Photo to show the scale from below.
@ClassicalAegis Love the scientific analyses added here. I still vividly remember our Latin teacher taking us to several of these theaters. The acoustics are still amazing. Today many spaces are too noisy, with concert halls and opera houses being an exception.
@ClassicalAegis Such an interesting article. I visited the temple in 2012. The colossal size made me wonder how they ever created this. One of my photos attached.
@Tr0llyTr0llFace About 5 years ago I signed up for the Ripple newsletter and was given 1000 XRP "worth" about a quarter. Forgot about it till December when it was worth a hilarious $2500. Felt sorry for everyone pumping real money into this garbage, what a scam!
