Nymphaeum, Jerash

Nymphaeum, Jerash

The Nymphaeum (a public fountain) of Jerash was built towards the end of the second century AD, when the city (and indeed the entire Roman Empire, according to Gibbon) was "most prosperous and happy" under the Antonines. In the foreground is a circular basin that received waters from the fountain, which were conducted through pipes whose outlets are visible in the background (center of the lower course) of this photo.

Ninfeo - Jerash, Giordania

Il Ninfeo (una fontana pubblica) di Jerash è stata costruita verso la fine del II secolo dC, quando la città (e in effetti l'intero Impero Romano, secondo Gibbon) è stato "più prospera e felice" sotto gli Antonini. In primo piano è una vasca circolare che ha ricevuto le acque della fontana, che sono stati condotti attraverso i tubi le cui uscite sono visibili sullo sfondo (centro del corso inferiore) di questa foto.
