Apollonia. Libya. Close-up view of rock cut seats of the Greek Theatre of Apollonia which lies just outside the eastern walls facing the Libyan / Mediterranean Sea. Dating from the Hellenistic period, the theatre was remoulded under the Emperor Domitian (AD 92-96) and is considered the best preserved theatre auditorium in Cyrenaica. The theatres cavea remains unchanged from its original construction and still has its twenty eight rock cut tiers of seats. Located approximately 20 kilometres from the magnificent Greek city of Cyrene, Apollonia was established on a broad bay in the late 7th early 6th century BC by the Greeks colonists of Cyrene to serve as its harbor / port. Named after the god Apollo, Apollonia remained Cyrene’s port for over one thousand years and its ruins provide insights into the great splendours of the Ancient Greek, Roman and Byzantine civilisations.
