Antonine Nymphaeum at Sagalassos, Turkey
The Antonine Nymphaeum at Sagalassos Archaeological Site in Turkey was Excavated in 1994 and 1995. This monumental fountain was a rather baroquely ornamented building. The coffer blocks originally covering the tabernacles and aediculae bore theatre masks, Medusa heads and male bearded figures depicted into diamond-shaped frames and surrounded by fishes and various vegetal motifs. It was erected in the Middle Antonine period (ca. 160-180 AD).
