Aerial of Temple

A Late Roman Temple in Antioch on the Orontes is located 0.1 miles to the east of the Hippodrome/Circus.

The temple is oriented north-south and has three entrances: on the west, south, and east.  The outer perimeter of the Temple measures 350 x 233 feet. Only the foundations of the podium on which the temple building stood are preserved—to a height of 15 feet!  The foundation consists of two parallel walls—an inner and outer—built of opus caementicium (roman concrete) with pebble stones and cement mortar.  There is a raised platform at its northern end.  Excavations of the structure began in 2008 and continue into the present.
