Best Answer

It is a series of buildings nearly two and a half thousand years old. It has been under threat of ruin for 500 years from attack, looting and degradation, and more recently form acid rain. That buildings of that age remain, compared with modern buildings which last less than a century, is remarkable, and it provided a wonderful example of early civilisation and capabilities.
