Exterior view of the Roman antique theatre building at Aspendos ancient site in Turkey. With a diameter of 96 metres, it provided seating for 7,000. It was built in 155 by the Greek architect Zenon, a native of the city. It was periodically repaired by the Seljuqs, who used it as a caravanserai, and in the 13th century the stage building was converted into a palace by the Seljuqs of Rum.
