Roman Cordoba



I have been trained (thanks to my time traveling with the American School) to seek out Greek and Roman remains wherever I travel and Cordoba didn't disappoint. The remains in include a Roman temple, mausoleum, and a heavily reconstructed bridge. Also of interest is the statue of Seneca near the Jewish Quarter. Seneca, a Roman Stoic philosopher and advisor to Emperor Nero, was born here around 4-1 BC.
