Kay, this thing is in Istanbul. It's the "Obelisk of Theodisius," a huge pillar erected in 390 AD... which I knew nothing about 'til I looked it up (go google!) Anyway, it celebrates an Egyptian victory on the Euphrates River.
Hadrian's Gate is in the old city wall in Antalya, erected by the Emperor Hadrian in 130 AD...
This is the tile floor in the ruins of Perga. There's information about Perga in Acts 13 and 14 if anyone is wondering.
The Roman baths in Perga are someof the most well preserved and this was the wall on the far side of one of them.
This is a fountain honoring some goddess or famous Roman woman, used to channel the river water through the city walls and into Perga.
