South Stoa, Corinth, Greece

A detail of the South Stoa, in Corinth, Greece. The South Stoa, on the south side of the Forum, was built in the 4th century BC but had been reconstructed before the Romans razed the city in 146 BC. Originally shops, the Romans converted the building into offices such as the council hall, or bouleuterion. Outside was a terrace with a wall on which were many sculptures. This statue of a woman, placed here in modern times, is seen in the early morning light
