Strange happenings at Euromos

Well that one was much easier, and a pleasure to write about!
Euromos contains one of the best preserved and most fascinating temples in the whole of Asia Minor, but the bizarre thing about the Euromos temple is that it was never finished. Many of the columns were left unfluted and some of them were even left semi-fluted – the masons appear to have literally downed their tools and they never finished the job. It’s almost as if a plague swept through the area and left everything stuck in a moment in time,or as if suddenly everyone ran away and never returned…
Very strange indeed.
