History
Market hall built on a triangular plan with one side being curvilinear and the others unequal. The circular entablature is supported by an alternation of pillars and columns forming a portico, following the rhythm marked by one pillar, three columns, one pillar, twice repeated. This construction is a good example of the care with which public building programmes were treated in the classical period.
