Leptis Magna. Libya. Extravagant sculpted pillars with scenes honouring the gods Dionysus and Hercules that are found at the two apses of the Basilica. The building was started by Septimius Severus and was completed by his son Caracalla in 216 AD. It was about 92m long and 40m wide, and was divided by colonnades of Egyptian granite Corinthian columns into a nave and two aisles; at either end it terminated in an apse flanked by side-chapels.
