About the Event
In the first century CE, in a city then known as Heliopolis, ‘City of the Sun’, the Romans constructed a vast religious complex. A monumental statement of Roman power at the eastern edges of the Empire, Baalbek complex is the greatest architectural assertion of Roman might ever undertaken.
Join us for a lecture on this amazing site and its impressive two-thousand-year-old structures. There will be time for Q & A following the lecure.
