The theatre at Soli

Description

A semicircular theatre cut into a slope, with several curved rows of stone seating rising in steps. In the foreground a flat, pale excavated floor forms the circular orchestra, and a low wall of cut blocks lies at the right. Along the top of the slope a stone wall or built ridge runs across the background under an empty sky.

A flat, open area lies in the foreground, and a stone-built wall runs along the top of the slope behind the seats. Rough stone blocks and a squared course of masonry sit at the right edge.
