The contributors to this volume discuss some of the most interesting and controversial results of recent investigations: the Processional Way of Artemis, the Hadrianic Olympieion and the Church of Mary, the so-called Temple of Domitian, and the heroa of Androklos and Arsinoe.

Since very little about the Austrian excavations at Ephesos has been published in English, this volume should prove useful in introducing the archaeology of this metropolis to a wider readership.  aEphesus (extinct city)xcivilisationycongresses.  aExcavations (archaeology)xTurkeyyEphesus (extinct city)zcongresses.  aEphesus (extinct city)xreligionzcongresses.  aRomexreligionycongresses.10aKoester, Helmut,d1926-eed.  aHarvard Divinity School.  aHarvard University.b Dept of Fine Arts.  aHarvard University.bDept of the Classics.  cAM2ddc  c791d791  00102ddc4070863aMAINbMAINcOPENd2007-08-30eKoorongg49.95l4m1o939.23/EPHp01480r2015-09-30 00:00:00s2014-08-08t1v80.00w2007-08-30yAM
