Temple of Dionysus
Side, Asia minor (Turkey)
1st century CE
This pseudoperipteral tetrastyle temple is situated very close to the Roman theater, on its north-western side. It is raised on a high platform and six steps on the north lead up to its pronaos. Originally, there were four columns at the entrance of the temple.
The cella walls have half-column projections making the temple a pseudoperipteros which is a rare case in the area of Asia Minor. The architectural decorations of the building are dated to Emperor Augustus' reign - the first century CE.
During the enlargement and reconstruction of the theater in the 2nd century CE, the south-western part of the temple of Dionysus was hidden by the pillar of the theater. Nowadays not much is left of the whole structure.
