Segesta was one of the principal cities of the Elymians, an indigenous Sicilian people [1]. Located in northwestern Sicily near modern Calatafimi-Segesta in Trapani province, it was one of three major Elymian centers alongside Eryx and Entella [1]. The city underwent early and thorough Hellenization, profoundly influencing its culture and architecture [1].
