The Pompeion, Athens, Greece. Artist: Samuel Magal
The Pompeion, Athens, Greece. The Pompeion, between the Dipylon Gate and the Sacred Gate, was where the preparations were carried out for the most important festival of ancient Athens, the Panathenaia. The Classical building was destroyed in 86 BC at the time of the Roman incursion into Athens. Later two buildings were erected on its ruins, first the so-called 'Storehouse' (2nd century AD) and afterwards, in around 400 AD, two arcades with a street ending in a gate.
