History
A treasury located on the Acropolis of Athens, which is attested from 434/3 BC. It may have been the repaired west porch of the old temple of Athena Polias or the west part of the Parthenon. Under this name, the latter was certainly the residence of King Demetrios Poliorketes from 307-304 BC.
