The Hanging Gardens were supposedly built around 600

the ancient Greek city of Ephesus, on the coast of what is now modern day Turkey.

The Temple of Artemis at Ephesus

The temple was destroyed and rebuilt several times. Each time, it was rebuilt more impressively than the temple before it.

The first temple was destroyed around 550 BC in a war. Years later, the temple was burnt down by a man who wanted to be remembered forever. (The town created a law that said anyone who mentioned his name would be put to death immediately.)

Слайд 14The Temple of Artemis at Ephesus
In Alexander’s time, the decorated temple

was 425 feet long, 225 feet wide, and 60 feet high. 127 columns supported the roof.   The temple was destroyed (again) around 200 CE by the Goths.

Today, all that remains of this incredible structure is a single column in the middle of a marshy (болотистый) field that marks the spot where the Temple once stood.

Only 56 years after the statue was built,

it was fallen down by an earthquake. Many pieces fell into the harbor. Some pieces remained on land, including the statue’s thumb.
