Gate of Hercules
This is dated to the end of the
4th or the beginning of the 5th century. A block adorned with a relief of
Nike, the goddess of victory, now located a little further on, originally
stood at this gate, which consists of two blocks of stone with a relief
depicting the combat of Hercules and the Nemaean lion. On the terrace
immediately to the left of the gate there is a four-columned Hellenistic
fountain.
