Guess the ancient city!

Recommended Posts

...Romans had Victoria and Greeks had Nike, fair to say than that this must be in the eastern half of the empire?

Good question, Viggen.

 

The sheep fell into the ground.

They were excavated and now they lay next to the the third building that was build on this site.

Once they belonged to the second one.

 

The other sheep must be still somewhere underneath the building ...

If there are any other sheep ... presumably, because there are expected to be 12 of them.

No, not complicated:

 

So far the clues are:

"There must be twelve of these and they were demolished by Nike"

 

=> Not all the sheep were found, just 10. The others are still buried beneath the third building on the same site.

=> Eastern part of the Empire

=> It's not Ephesus

=> In the same city is a column with the pagan symbols of nike combined with the Chi-Rho on the same pedestal

=> Try to use nike in a verb as an imperative
