Amphitheater of Epodorous

On our drive to Olympia, we stopped at Epodorous , the best surviving open air theater of Ancient Greece . Built over 3000 years ago, it's in almost perfect condition, we arrived early with almost no one there. I stood in the center of the circle at the bottom, the stage floor, Karen walked up to the back top row ( see her with umbrella in the photo above  ? ) when I spoke in a normal voice , she could hear me clearly ! The acoustics were PERFECT, an astounding engineering feat. The city of Epodorous was the birthplace of modern medicine.
