The theater of Morgantina (now Sicily) was constructed toward the middle of the third century BC, on the site of an earlier and more modest structure of the same function. The existing theater is part of an ambitious unitary project of the embellishment of the agorà. https://www.whitman.edu/theatre/theatretour/morgantina/commentary/morgantina.commentary.htm
