Ephesus Museum

Organized by subject and artifact groups, the museum offers a journey through 8,500 years of history. Important exhibits include artifacts from the Temple of Artemis, Ephesus, and the Church of St. John. The statue of the "Resting Warrior," discovered in the Polio Fountain, depicting a calm warrior leaning on his shield and sword, is also among the striking pieces. The statue of Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius displays fine workmanship with detailed wrinkles and a Roman cloak. The "Head of Eros," a replica of Lysippos' "Eros stretching the bow," has an innocent expression and delicate curls. The statue of Artemis combines the features of Cybele, who symbolizes fertility, with intricate details such as a temple-shaped headdress and animal and bee motifs.
