Known throughout its early modern history as the “Theseum,” it is still the Agora’s most conspicuous landmark. This book presents an extremely detailed architectural study of the temple and a reconstruction of its history. Inaugurated in 449 B.C. (on October 17, claims the author), the temple was one of a group of building projects that celebrated the defeat of the Persians and the growth of Athenian power. In the 5th century A.D. the temple was converted to a Christian church and was used as such until the 19th century.","Dinsmoor, W. B.","1941"
"Debris from a Public Dining Place in the Athenian Agora","","","Agora:Publication:Hesperia Supplement 25","Publication","American School of Classical Studies at Athens","Agora","","Hesperia Suppl. 25 (1992)","","Agora:Image:2009.09.0080::/Agora/2009/2009.09/2009.09.0080.jpg::564::772","In 1972 a large deposit of pottery and other finds from the mid-5th century B.C. were found in a pit just west of the Royal Stoa in the Athenian Agora. It contained many fragments of figured pottery, more than half of which were large drinking vessels. 21 fragments were inscribed with a graffito known to be a mark of public ownership. The authors conclude that the pottery is refuse from one of the public dining facilities that served the magistrates of Classical Athens. The volume examines the archaeological context and chronology of the deposit and gives a detailed analysis of all the finds. A complete catalogue arranges the finds by type and in chronological order.","Rotroff, S. I.","1992"
