I was in Cyrene during the summer of 1957 when the first column of this temple was raised by a team from the Royal Electrical & Mechanical Engineers of the British Army. It took many weeks to assemble the stone drums one on top of the other, using steel scaffolding and a block and tackle pulley system.

Thank you very much for your interesting comment dear sir! I am sure it must have been a great experience to be present at such an event. I wish I had lived it too. Many greetings from Greece!
