dc.descriptionView into two carved out grottos; Neapolis [Syracuse] was developed with a theatre, monumental altar 198 m long, stoas, nymphaeum and sacred precincts during the city's Hellenistic resurgence under the rule of Hieron II (reigned 275-215 BCE). The theatre is one of the largest in the Greek world (diam. 138 m) and influenced both Sicilian and Roman design. Source: Grove Art Online; http://www.groveart.com/ (accessed 2/3/2008)en_US
