As a tithe, they dedicated these mares to. Agora: not a public space during the tyrants, but it becomes one at the beginning of democracy, in 480 when the persians took athens, it was taken away, bronze replicas replaced the original shortly after. Differences in dating depend on the background of the scholars and what they believe to be important. The old temple of athena on the acropolis: camp believes that it symbolizes that beginning of democracy, our professor believes it is from the age of the tyrants. Heliaia: agora, considered to signify the start of democracy. The agora between the beginning of democracy and the persian wars. It was probably just a roped off area where the court met: the great drain of the agora runs by building f and the old bouleuterion. Eridanos river: one meter high and one meter wide, worked well to keep the agora dry.
