Commentary

Dedicatory columella found during excavations of a Classical building (temple?) located between Ardittou, Thômopoulou, Kephalou, and Koutoula streets (Mets neighbourhood), i.e. near the temple of Artemis Agrotera in the area of ancient Agrai.
A relief depicting Zeus enthroned was also found there; thus this could be the place where the sanctuary of Zeus (Meilichios) in Agrai was located.
Colonnette votive trouvée lors des fouilles d'un édifice (temple ?) d'époque classique situé entre les rues Ardittou, Thômopoulou, Kephalou et Koutoula (quartier de Mets), i.e. près du temple d'Artémis Agrotera dans le secteur de l'ancienne Agrai.
Un relief représentant Zeus trônant a été trouvé au même endroit, qui pourrait donc être l'emplacement du sanctuaire de Zeus (Meilichios) à Agrai.
