The Southern Byzantine Gate

(Beginning of the 5th century AD)

Built of travertine blocks & reused masonry, some in marble, & flanked by two square towers. Like the North Byzantine Gate, it is characterised by a large arch resting on a monolithic architrave. However, the actual height of the door is somewhat lower than its northern twin. Recent work has led to the removal of collapsed masonry & has reconstructed ample portions of the wall.
