The Aiakeion was a sanctuary of Aiakos built in Athens in the early fifth century BC, which is identified with the Rectangular Peribolos in the southwestern corner of the Agora. In 374/3 BC it was converted to a granary. It was damaged in the Sullan Sack in 86 BC and in the Imperial period it was a pottery workshop.

An unfinished Doric stoa with colonnades on both long sides, built at Thorikos in the late fifth century BC, of uncertain function, perhaps a gateway to a sanctuary of Demeter. Material from the structure was spoliated in the Augustan period to build the southwest temple in the Athenian Agora.

A house at the southwestern corner of the Athenian Agora, built ca. 500 BC, destroyed during the Persian Sack in 480 BC, rebuilt in the 470s and demolished in the late fourth century BC. Finds suggest that in the third quarter of the fifth century BC it belonged to a shoemaker named Simon, perhaps to be identified with the interlocutor of Sokrates known from literary sources.

The New Bouleuterion was the meeting place of the Boule or Council of Athens, built at the end of the fifth century BC on the west side of the Agora, where it formed part of a complex with the Old Bouleuterion and the Tholos. It was modified in the early third century BC and destroyed in the Herulian Sack of AD 267.
Creators: Chris de Lisle
Contributors: Brady Kiesling; Jeffrey Becker -
The Old Bouleuterion on the west side of the Agora in Athens was built in the early fifth century BC as the meeting place of the Boule or Council of 500. It also housed the Metroon, a shrine to the Mother of the Gods. The Council moved to the New Bouleuterion at the end of the fifth century BC, but the Old Bouleuterion remained in use as an archive and shrine. It was renovated ca. 140 BC and destroyed in the Herulian Sack of 267 AD. In the early 5th century AD, one of the rooms was rebuilt, possibly for use as a synagogue.
