History
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.
