Selinunte in Sicily is very beguiling. Not just the remnants of the huge major temples but the cult sites of Demeter and Hecate. All remarkable survivals as the site was abandoned from pre-roman times until the early modern period. It is a very special place.

There are many beautiful temples from ancient Hellas but after a month ago I have to the the *Palace of Aigai* near the city of Αιγές/Aiges in Makedonia. This was built by Phillip II at the centre of the Makedonia. Alexander started his conquest from this place! You should really come and see it if you can! It open a month ago after 16 years of revocations! It was completely deserted but we found it’s foundations and they tried to reconstruct some of it! It was so huge that it could fit three Parthenons inside of it and still have space!

No invaders. *rolleyes The oracle's importance declined in later antquity, so there was less money to continue building and for the upkeep of the existing structure, especially after the cult of the oracle ceased altogether during the 4th century. Then, the city got hit by massive earthquakes in the 7th and 15th century, destroying the town and the temple. The temple's remains were also scavenged for building materials in later centuries, which is quite normal for sites like this.

As Christianity became dominant after the fall of Rome there were organized attacks on classical "pagan" art, architecture and literature by Christian zealots. This is a quote from the bible "AND YE SHALL OVERTHROW THEIR ALTARS, AND BREAK THEIR PILLARS, AND BURN THEIR GROVES WITH FIRE; AND YE SHALL HEW DOWN THE GRAVEN IMAGES OF THEIR GODS". Of course the passage of time, earthquakes etc contributed to the destruction but the waves of attacks that Christians launched did immense damage.

Amazing, i didn't know this existed. I was somewhat under the impression that the temple of Olympian Zeus was the largest one. Thanks for this!

Nothing can compare with Parthenon nor other Greek or Roman structure. There is golden ratio and other techniques/ technologies which are unique.

THANK YOU for this video. I recently came back from 5 weeks in Turkiye and I visited this temple but knew very little about it. I wish I had found your video before my visit - I understand so much more of it now! I also visited the remains of the Artemis temple in Selcuk. Your explanation of the design of the temple was so easy to follow. But sadly - watching the video I saw something I didn't notice when I visited. I completely missed the carvings at the base of the columns that you point out in the video and they look amazing. Next year I am planning an even longer trip to visit many temples across Greece and southern Italy but I will scour through all of your videos BEFORE the trip. Thanks for the work you put into these - it's appreciated.
