For #AncientSiteSunday the #Hellenistic theatre at Pergamon, #Turkey, built in the 3rd century BC, alterations were made in the #Roman period. It's one of the steepest known ancient theatres. The capacity was about 10,000 spectators.

@gpollara Have you seen the virtual Pergammon exhibition in Berlin? (nothing compares to the original, of course)

@cyrilpedia no, but now I feel like I have to. What have they got there?

@gpollara It's a giant cilinder with projection and sound, and you climb on an inner tower as it cycles through the hours of the day
