Turkey_Claros_053.jpg
View of one of the two arched subterranean sacred rooms- Adyton, of the Temple of Apollo, Greek sanctuary of Apollo of Claros, Turkey. This image shows the first room, the waiting room for the priest, scribes and petitioners. The large (26 x 46 meters) temple dates from around the 3rd century BC and follows a peripteral plan (6 by 11 columns). It is unique in that it is the only Doric temple built in Ionia and that it has two adytons beneath the cella.
