FOUNDED IN 581 BC BY COLONISTS FROM NEIGHBOURING GELA WHO
NAMED IT AKRAGAS, IT RAPIDLY GREW IN ECONOMIC, CIVIL AND
MILITARY IMPORTANCE, SO MUCH SO THAT IN LEAGUE WITH
SYRACUSE IT VANQUISHED THE CARTHAGINIAN ARMY AT IMERA IN
480 BC AND SCALED DOWN ITS EXPANSIONIST AMBITIONS. FROM
THIS ERA THE MOST IMPOSING AND IMPORTANT ARCHITECTURAL
REMAINS, WHICH PUT THE CITY ON THE SAME ARTISTIC LEVEL AS
THE MOST IMPORTANT GREEK CITIES.THE CITY IS DIVIDED INTO
TWO AREAS THE MODERN URBAN CENTRE AND THE VALLEY OF THE
TEMPLES , THE ANCIENT SACRED TERRITORY WHICH TODAY HAS
BECOME A FOCUS OF HISTORICAL AND ARCHITECTURAL INTEREST.
WITHOUT DOUBT THE MOST SPECTACULAR SURVIVING TRACE OF
ANCIENT AKRAGAS IS THE TEMPLE OF CONCORDIA. BUILT TOWARDS
THE MIDDLE OF THE 5TH CENTURY AND DEDICATED TO THE
DIOSCURI, THE CONSTRUCTION STANDS OUT IMPOSINGLY IN AN
AMAZING STATE OF PRESERVATION /IN COMPARISON WITH THE
TEMPLES OF PAESTUM, IT STANDS LIKE THE FIGURE OF GOD
BEFORE THAT OF A GIANT/ NOTED GOETHE DURING HIS JOURNEY
OF 1787. THE TEMPLE OF THE DIOSCURI AND THAT OF JUNO DATE
FROM THE SAME PERIOD. THE MODERN PART OF AGRIGENTO TOO
PRESERVES GLORIES AND REMAINS OF THE PAST IN A CURIOUS
MIXTURE OF ARABIC, ROMAN AND BAROQUE
