  • CORINTH, GREECE - APRIL 15 : A general view of the Fountain of Peirene at the head of the Lechaion Road, on April 15, 2007 in Corinth, Greece. The Fountain of Peirene, seen in the afternoon light by the steps of the Lechaion Road, is said to mark the spot where the nymph Peirene was turned into a spring by the tears she shed in mourning for her son. This chief source of water for Ancient Corinth was remodelled by the Romans into a fountain complex, with Corinthian colums which were added in the 3rd century AD. Corinth, founded in Neolithic times, was a major Ancient Greek city, until it was razed by the Romans in 146 BC. Rebuilt a century later it was destroyed by an earthquake in Byzantine times.
