Odeum
An odeum is a hall, theater, or other structure for musical or dramatic performances.
Paul's companions in Ephesus were sent to an odeum in the midst of a riot. Eventually the crowd was dismissed without the two sustaining injury. (Acts 19:41)
The city was filled with the confusion, and they rushed with one accord into the theater, dragging along Gaius and Aristarchus, Paul's traveling companions from Macedonia. (Acts 19:29, NASB)
:Note: This is a model of the Artemis Temple that was the likely site of the riot of Acts 19.
