The temple of Artemis



The temple of Artemis is one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. It is in Ephesus and it must have been built around 550 BC. In the temple there were a sacred stone. It might have been a meteorite. Although the temple was destroyed (it might have been destroyed when Ephesus was conquered), it is one most the most beautiful buildings in the world. It was described by Antipater of Sidon, who completed the list of the Seven Wonders. He said that he had set eyes on every of the wonders, but when he had seen the Temple of Artemis, those other marvels had lost their brilliancy.
