  This is where the processional way to the Temple of Artemis meets the Cardo Maximus. It was designed to impress the passer by with sheer size and ornamentation. Passed the first flight of steps there's a big square structure in the middle. Those are the remains of the main altar to the goddess. Flanking this altar terrace on an elevated level, there are two altars: one in Greek dedicated to Lady Artemis and another in Latin to Diana. Keep going up from the altar terrace until you reach the temenos of the Sanctuary of Artemis. Before the monumental temple of Artemis you can notice an structure with circular walls. These are the Byzantine-Umayyad kilns.
