Hellenistic fortifications

Hellenistic fortifications are defense structures constructed during the Hellenistic Period in the eastern Mediterranean and into West Asia by the states which succeeded Alexander the Great. These included fortification walls, towers, and gates. The expansion of their territory created the need for new fortifications for new settlements. This, combined with developing military technology, led to changes in style of architecture specific to the Hellenistic Period.
