Abstract
Since 2011, the mission on the acropolis of Selinunte of the Institute of Fine Arts–NYU and of the University of Milan has been excavating in the area of Temple R. Located in the main urban sanctuary, this temple dates back to 590–580 BCE and was used down to ca. 300 BCE. Our detailed stratigraphic excavations are reconstructing the biography of the temple, including a fire ca. 500 BCE. This note details the evidence for this destructive event, including the burning of the floor, burnt tiles, and traces of fire on the inner walls. After this event, the temple was restructured, including the floor, the walls, and the roof.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
