The Valley of Temples at Agrigento is on the UNESCO world heritage list. Here we are looking back along part of the sacred way to the Concordia temple (ca. 430 BC) which was used as a church later and thus survived destruction. The Carthaginians under Hannibal started demolition in 406 BC, the Christians continued as part of the struggle against paganism and earthquakes played their part.
