Modern Description: The nymphaeum at the place known as “Boufi” is situated inside the Roman walls immediately east of the monumental West Gate. It consists of two pi-shaped brick buildings, partly faced with marble in antiquity, flanked by the Decumanus maximus. The exterior walls were flat, while the interior walls had niches for statues. These two buildings were built on two cisterns fed by the aqueduct from the springs of the Louros River at Agios Georgios.
