Another legend about Aspendos:
Antonius Pius had a beautiful daughter and two architects were in love with her. Antonius Pius gave a duty both of them; he told that he would marry off his daughter with the man who makes the most beautiful and useful creation. One architect built the aqueduct bringing water to Belkýs, and the other one the theatre. The Emperor was surprised and couldn’t make a decision. He wanted to divide his daughter into two pieces but the builder of aqueduct who loved this girl more then the other architect objected this decision and said, “let her marry with the creator of the theatre.”
