In ruinis Paesti iacent tria templa
The ruins of Paestum are famous for their three ancient Greek temples in the [[Ordo Doricus|Doric order]], dating from about 600 to 450 BC, which are in a very good state of preservation. The city walls and amphitheatre are largely intact, and the bottom of the walls of many other structures remain, as well as paved roads. The site is open to the public, and there is a modern national museum within it, which also contains the finds from the associated Greek site of Foce del Sele.
After its foundation by Greek colonists under the name of '''Poseidonia''' ({{lang-grc|Ποσειδωνία}}) it was eventually conquered by the local Lucanians and later the [[Romani antiqui|Romans]]. The Lucanians renamed it to '''Paistos''' and the Romans gave the city its current name. As '''Pesto''' or Paestum, the town became a bishopric (now only titular), but it was abandoned in the Early Middle Ages, and left undisturbed and largely forgotten until the eighteenth century.▼

was a major [[Graecia antiqua|ancient Greek]] city on the coast of the [[Mare Tyrrhenum|Tyrrhenian Sea]] in [[Magna Graecia]] (southern Italy). The ruins of Paestum are famous for their three ancient Greek temples in the [[Ordo Doricus|Doric order]], dating from about 600 to 450 BC, which are in a very good state of preservation. The city walls and amphitheatre are largely intact, and the bottom of the walls of many other structures remain, as well as paved roads.

As '''Pesto''' or Paestum, the town became a bishopric (now only titular), but it was abandoned in the Early Middle Ages, and left undisturbed and largely forgotten until the eighteenth century.
Today the remains of the city are found in the modern ''[[Vicus Italiae|frazione]]'' of Paestum, which is part of the ''[[Municipium Italiae|comune]]'' of [[Calpatium-Paestum|Capaccio]] in the [[Provincia Salernitana|Province of Salerno]], [[Campania (Italia)|Campania]], [[Italia|Italy]]. The modern settlement, directly to the south of the archaeological site, is a popular seaside resort, with long sandy beaches.-->
