Art/Literary - Religion / Apocalypse: l'eglise de Laodicée
French term or phrase: à vous donner le frisson
Peu de fouilles ont été entreprises à Laodicée, qui n'a pas encore révélé ses richesses archéologiques. Le site désertique de ce que l'on appelle le "Petit théâtre de Laodicée" est ***à vous donner le frisson***. Pierre sur pierre, avec en arrière plan des montagnes et des pierres, toujours des pierres, est un spectacle de désolation.
