Ruins of Messini, Part 1

Ancient Messini was founded in the fourth century BC, after the Messinians defeated Sparta in a battle that ended almost 350 years of Spartan rule in the area. Click the city name to see a more detailed description from Lonely Planet.  We spent a morning there and had a chance to wander around the old theater, marketplace, and sports complex.  These are a few of the pictures I took there, with more to follow.
