As it stood in 290 BC
What Dodona looked like in its prime.
A broad hill-cut sanctuary dominated by a semicircular stone theatre of concentric grey limestone seating rising from a flat orchestra; a massive ashlar retaining wall and square masonry towers anchor the flanks. Scattered fallen blocks and low foundation courses dot grassy terraces and cleared excavation areas. The temenos is defined by low coursed-stone walls and the footprints of rectangular temple podia, with scrubby oaks and the slopes of Mount Tomaros framing the site under open sky. No roofs survive; surfaces are weathered but masonry remains regular.
