Ephesus was an ancient Greek city, and later a major Roman city, on the west coast of Asia Minor, near present-day Selcuk, within the Province of Izmir, Turkey. It was one of the twelve cities of the Ionian League during the Classical Greek Period. In Roman Times, circa the 1st Century BC, Ephesus had a population of more than 250,000 citizens, making it the second largest city in the world. Destroyed by the Goths in 263 AD, Ephesus still remained an important city during the Byzantine period. Towards the eastern edge of Curetes Street, beyond the Heracles Gate and north-northeast of the Domitian Square, is the Memmius Monument. This edifice is comprised of a relief of the Goddess of Victory Nike, the remains of a fountain and some high reliefs of the Memmius family members (dictator Sulla, his son Gaius and grandson Memmius), to whom this monument is dedicated, or attributed. The monument was built circa 1st Century AD (Late Hellenistic or Greco-Roman Period), while the fountain was added to it circa 4th Century AD.
