Paestum, Nettuno Temple (Italy)
When we first saw this card, we assumed it was Greek. It sure looked Greek to us. The first clue we might be wrong was noticing it was mailed from Italy (three stamps, three 1964 postmarks). The second clue was that the card was made in Italy. The clincher was to Google “Paestum” and see this: “Paestum was a major Greek city on the coast of the Tyrrhenian Sea in Magna Graecia. The ruins of Paestum are famous for their three ancient Greek temples in the Doric order, dating from about 550 to 450 BC.” So we weren’t wrong — but Paestum is now in Salerno. Oh those shifting borders and conquests. Grade: 1
