Asclepeion Lissos

Asclepeion Lissos

Temple of Asclepius, is built with polygonal system of the classical Hellenistic style was founded the third century b.C.


In the center of the Asclepion floor, lines penetrate straight to one another, forming clockwise and counterclock geometrical forms. 



They develop meander forming isosceles crosses and its external corners are going to drawings at the four directions of the horizon, but unfortunatelly we can see clearly only two of them: a bird looking like a rooster and a mammal reminding an antelope. 



In the center of the cross must have existed a fifth show in the past, but every trace even the outline is shaped off today. At perimeter of the mosaic, Dorian style meanders are shaping vineyard images.
