A house on the Acropolis of Athens, the residence of the Arrheporoi ('bearers of unspoken things'), two girls, who helped weave Athena's cloak for the Panathenaia festival and carried a box containing the 'unspoken things' down from the Acropolis to a precinct near the sanctuary of Aphrodite in the Gardens during the Arrhephoria festival. The house is possibly to be identified with Building III on the Acropolis.
