Partial view of the atrium in the House of the Ceii, Pompeii. The small round marble table survived the fury of Vesuvius.

Based on electoral inscriptions, it is believed that this house belonged to the magistrate Lucius Ceius Secundus.

Hıdırlık Tower

Antalya, Turkey

2nd century CE

It is believed that the ruling Roman Empire built it in the second century CE on a square plan. In the same century, it was turned into circular tower. It has since been used as a fortification or a lighthouse.

The tower is situated at the southern side of the place, where the land walls of the city join the sea walls. The 14-metre-high (46 ft) structure consists of a circular tower rising on a quadratic pedestal. The tower’s gate at the eastern side leads to a small room, from where a narrow staircase goes up. There are signs of restoration work on the upper part done in the Seljuk and Ottoman eras.
