This publication, part of the renowned Forschungen in Ephesos series, is the second volume to present the results of excavations at the Tetragonos Agora, Ephesos (Western Turkey) and brings together studies which are thematically very diverse. Part I summarizes the results of the excavations carried out between 1902-1907 and 1976-2001 in this area, an area with a building history spanning 1,500 years. The Agora was laid out in the 3rd century BC on top of an earlier village settlement with its accompanying necropolis, both dating to the 8th century BC.In the early period of Imperial Rome the market place was enlarged significantly, in the late 4th century CE large-scale renovations were undertaken, and finally in the 6th century CE a last basic restructuring was made. In Part 2, findings from the Classical Period (5th and 4th centuries BC) are discussed in detail. Of special interest here are a well filled with numerous ceramic vessels, several basin facilities for manufacturing, and the sarcophagus of a young man with a lyre. Based on the finds excavated at the Tetragonos Agora, Part 3 contains studies of the ceramic ware, which was produced locally and imported, trade contacts, and the zoology of the area.
