South Gate of the Agora
The Gate of Mazaeus and Mithridates forms a marked passage between the Library of Celsus and the Commercial Agora. Its inscription gives this threshold a human link to the Roman city.
Why go
Passing through the gate makes the relationship between the library court and market square immediately clear. Look at its inscribed dedication before entering the agora: it turns a short transition in the walking route into evidence of named patrons and the public spaces they helped shape.
What to look for
The gate stands between the Library of Celsus and Commercial Agora.
An inscription names Mazaeus and Mithridates.
Useful to know
Read the gate while moving between the library court and market square.
Follow the signed route; access to individual masonry is unverified.
