Byzantine Caesarea was even larger than the Roman city. Covering some 160 hectares, it had city walls, baths, churches, administrative buildings, shops, an amphitheater, a new hippodrome and theater, and was still laid out on a grid pattern. The harbor was repaired as well: in 502 the emperor Anastasius (491-518) was praised with the words, "The city welcomes ships with confidence and she is filled with all necessities." The Byzantine walls were probably built under Justinian.
