Metroon

The Metroon was an ancient Greek temple [1]. Located on the west side of the Athenian Agora, it occupied the Old Bouleuterion, the former meeting place of the city council [1]. After a New Bouleuterion was constructed at the end of the 5th century BC, the original building was converted into a temple dedicated to Cybele, the Phrygian mother goddess [1] [2].
