Description

Bet She'an III Nysa-Scythopolis: The Southern and Severan Theaters. Part 2: The Architecture provides an architectural analysis and a proposed reconstruction of the Southern and Severan Theaters in Nysa-Scythopolis based on the stratigraphy and the finds revealed in the excavations conducted by Applebaum in 1960–1962 and the IAA, in 1986–2002. It further presents the development of Roman theaters and their integration into the civic centers of the poleis of the Roman East as an on-going process of construction and renovation that corresponded with the urban development and prosperity of the cities, from the late first century BCE to the mid-third century CE.
