Bouleuterion. It is located at the centre of the city, with a rectangular plan along an east-west axis. The excavation of the courtyard is not complete. On its western side, measuring 24,95 x 29,80 m, are semicircular seating steps and on the plane to its east is the courtyard. On the interior façade of the north anta wall are Greek inscriptions, and on the exterior are Latin ones. The Latin ones show prices of goods to be sold in town. Thus inflation was prevented. The building must date from the first century AD. Floral ornamentation and inscriptions date from the last period. The oldest [youngest?] of these descriptions is dated to October-November 1608. I doubt if this is correct, I guess 608 would be acceptable. Though the vandals who wrote on the west wall (Oto Metin Elektriçi, to name one) probably are too young to even respect history.
