EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking image showcases the ancient ruins of the Temple of Diana, also known as the Temple of Artemis, located in the ancient city of Ephesus in modern-day Turkey. Built around 550 BC, this temple was a marvel of the ancient world, renowned for its grandeur and beauty. The temple was almost entirely constructed from gleaming white marble, making it a breathtaking sight to behold. The Temple of Diana was dedicated to the Greek goddess Artemis, the goddess of the hunt, wilderness, and childbirth. It was considered one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, attracting visitors from far and wide to marvel at its architectural brilliance. However, the temple's existence was tragically cut short in 356 BC when it was destroyed by a man named Herostratus. Herostratus set fire to the temple in an attempt to immortalise his name in history by being the one to destroy such a famous landmark. His plan backfired, as he became infamous for his destructive act rather than being remembered for his heroics. Despite the temple's destruction, its legacy lives on. The ruins that remain today continue to captivate visitors from around the world, offering a glimpse into the rich history and cultural significance of ancient Greece and the Roman Empire. The intricate details of the remaining marble columns and the grand scale of the temple's foundations serve as a testament to the ingenuity and artistic prowess of the ancient civilizations that built them. This image, captured by Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when such marvels were the norm and the world was filled with wonders yet to be discovered.
