This imposing Roman complex functioned as the State Agora. On its east side, an originally two-story building is thought to have been used as a library, while in a columned niche, you can still see a figure of Nemesis, the goddess of fate.
If you carry on from the agora, heading towards the eastern old town walls, you'll come to the extensive ruins of the Byzantine bishop's palace, principal, and baptistery. These early Christian buildings date from between the 5th and 10th centuries AD.
