Three Greek temples stand in a field south of Salerno, older and better preserved than almost anything in Greece itself. Founded as Poseidonia by colonists around 600 BC, Paestum kept its Doric temples through Roman rule, then vanished into malarial marsh for centuries until 18th-century road-builders stumbled on them. The Temple of Hera is among the oldest standing Greek temples anywhere. Nearby, the Tomb of the Diver holds one of the only surviving Greek paintings of a human figure from the Classical period, a young man diving into water, its meaning still debated.
