EPHESUS AMPHITHEATHRE, N1 ENTRANCE, RESTORATION WORKS
Turkey

 

In ancient times, Ephesus was one of the oldest, largest and most important Greek cities of Asia Minor and was home to the Temple of Artemis, being one of the Seven Wonders of the World. In ancient times the city was right on the sea, but by sedimentation, climatic and seismic-related changes, the coastline moved over time to the west, so that the remains of the city are several kilometers inland today. The ruins of Ephesus are near Selçuk, about 70 km south of Izmir, on the west coast of Turkey. Between 1895 – 2016, the Austrian Archaeological Institute (ÖAI) was carrying out systematic excavations in Ephesus.

convex Ltd. Şti. has undertaken the reinforcement works for the N1 Entrance of the Ephesus Theather on behalf of the Austrian Archaelogical Institute (ÖAI). Within the contract, supply and installation works of stainless steel telescopic masts and plexiglass panels are successfully completed between July – August 2011.
