Lindus Acropolis from NW with Theater from the 4th cent. BCE The Theater is cut into the rock with 19 rows of seats in the lower part and 7 in the upper part. Eight aisles facilitated the traffic for 2500 estimated spectators. On a raised platform, surrounding the semicircle of the stage, the ceremonial thrones were placed for the priests of Athena. A block with the inscription Of Athena was found nearby, probably belonging to a throne. The Theater was thus intimately connected with the cult of Athena on the Acropolis. |
