Was never quick enough to get a good shot of the numerous marble/travertine quarries. Entire mountains have been quarried - leaving huge scars, really strange looking. Typically enormous cubes, maybe 6 X 6 feet are cut, believe they are transported in this shape for cutting. Also, there is still a market for Roman & Greek statuary, saw several places selling them. So if you need an Aphrodite or Dionysus statue you can buy one here.
