The Nymphaion. Donated by Herodes and his wife Regilla to the sanctuary. The niches of the semicircular, two-story building were adorned with statues of Herodes Atticus, of the Emperors Antonius Pius, Hadrian, Marcus Aurelious, and members of their families. |
There was also a marble bull in front of the Nymphaion. |
The foundation of a prehistoric building. |
