History
A small theater of the Roman era, located on the site of Antipatris. It may never have been completed, or it was heavily spoliated prior to its ultimate destruction in an earthquake in 363 CE. The original excavator tentatively suggested identifying it as an odeon, but for various archaeological and stylistic reasons, this view has not been widely accepted.
