Ruins of Temple A, built 490-460 BC, which had a peristyle of 6 x 14 Doric columns, 2 spiral staircases leading to a gallery floor and a mosaic pavement, on the acropolis of the ancient ruined Greek city of Selinunte, Sicily, Italy. In the distance is Temple C, built 550 BC, with a peristyle of 6 x 17 Doric columns, 14 of which were re-erected in 1925-27 along with a section of the entablature. It was dedicated to Apollo and is thought to have been used as an archive. Selinunte was founded in 628 BC and was an important Greek colony, home to up to 100,000 people at its peak and abandoned in 250 BC. The city consists of an acropolis housing 2 main streets and 5 temples, 3 other hills with housing and temples and 2 necropoleis. Picture by Manuel Cohen
