The sanctuary of Athena in Phocian Antikyra
Original language description
An Archaic temple of Athena was excavated in the city of Antikyra in southern Phocis, but remained unpublished for more than half a century, while the finds are kept in the National Archaeological Museum of Athens. In this contribution the plan and the remnants of the building with its architectural terracottas that allow a dating before the middle of the 6th century B.C. are briefly presented. The clay and especially the metal finds testify to a cult which may reach back to as early as the 8th century B.C. Among the later dedications, two statuettes and an inscribed base are discussed more thoroughly. Finally, the temple is seen as part of a borderline network of Athena sanctuaries, which documents both shifts and continuity in the religious practice in Phocis and connects Antikyra with Delphi and Elateia.
