The Greek theatre

The Greek performance center of Syracuse lies on the south slants of the Temenite slope, disregarding the cutting edge city of Syracuse in southeastern Sicily.

It was first worked in the fifth century BC, remade in the third century BC and revamped again in the Roman time frame. Today, it is a piece of the Unesco World Heritage Site of "Syracuse and the Rocky Necropolis of Pantalica".

The presence of an auditorium at Syracuse is bore witness to before the finish of the fifth century BC by the emulate creator, Sophron, who names the modeler as Damokopos, called "Myrilla" in light of the fact that he made substantial utilization of scent at the initiation.

It has not been demonstrated; notwithstanding, that the entry records this landmark and some believe that it alludes to another auditorium in another area.

In any case it is sure that an auditorium was utilized as a part of Syracuse from the early established period and in it, it appears, the showy exercises of the dramatists Epicharmus, Phormis and Deinolocus occurred.
