Click on photo to enlarge

I found this lovely piece at the Tel Aviv University (see my previous photos: Step back in Time and TA University). The label is in the title. For more information on Roman architecture, Corinthians and Ionic capitals click here: info

Dsole, when I took the photo there were a few of these pillars in a row. Then there was an explanation of each pillar. This is pillar no. 1. Yes, it's nice to see some history.
