Does anyone know of an ancient city that was by the sea and the building were constructed of pink marble?
October 26th, 2009 | by admin |The inside of the buildings, or at least one major building, was polished pink marble.
Big Mama, Thank you for trying. I appreciate that you took the effort to search but unfortunately, this isn;t the city or building I’m looking for. I’m looking for.
Sorry. I wrote the last sentence twice but can’t delete it.
Kept searching and discovered the building was pink limestone and the city was Alexandria.
Thanks, anyway.
I don’t know if it is by the sea, but there is a Baptistry in Parma, Italy that was built between 1196 and 1270. It was constructed of pink Verona marble by Benedetto Antelami. It is near the Parma River.
