Turkey. Ephesus. The well preserved Odeon or Bouleuterion. Dating from the 2nd century AD, the building was used for poetry reciting and staging concerts and also a meeting place for council. It seated 1,400 spectators was probably covered with a wooden roof as no gutters or drains for rain water exist. Directly in front of the Odeon is the Basilica and then the State Agora.
