The Gate of Mazeus and Mythridates, 40 AD, Ephesus, Izmir, Turkey. The gate with 3 passageways to the right of the Library of Celsus was built by the slaves Mazeus and Mythridates for their emperor, Augustus, who gave them their freedom. Here we see the passages from the inside. Ephesus was an ancient Greek city founded in the 10th century BC, and later a major Roman city, on the Ionian coast near present day Selcuk.
