Segesta, the temple
This splendid Doric temple is noted for the fact that it doesn't have a cella,
a square structure inside. It is of note also the fact that is
splendidly well preserved as are most Greek ruins in Sicily except for
Selinunte because it was destroyed by Carthage in the fifth millennium
B.C. I do not use the annoying politically correct before or after
common era that I find totally reprehensible.
Again, the afternoon light was nice and warm. I entered after closing time so it was mercifully free of tourists. How I achieved this is a story for another day.
