Underground Agora 1

Underground Agora 1

View of a portion of the lower portion of the agora (the Cryptoporticus). A similar two-story agora has also been found in the excavations at Thessaloniki (Greece).

Note the covered fescos on the left side of the passageway (eventually, these will be open to the public). Above this was the main shopping area of the agora.
