[288] The map in Fig. 46 is reproduced by Prof. Dörpfeld’s kind permission from his official plan published in the _Antike Denkmäler_ (II. 37). To discuss the later Greek, Hellenistic and Roman agoras is no part of the object of the present book, but it was thought well to reproduce the plan as showing how the agora spread gradually to the North and also as elucidating the complex of roads that meet at the Enneakrounos. [289] For the details of this and the other buildings both of the Hellenistic and Roman agoras, see my _Myth. and Mon. Anc. Athens_, pp. 17-22, 199, 183-203. [290] _A. Mitt._ 1896, XXI. p. 108. [291] After the restoration of W. Judeich, _Jahrbuch f. Phil._ CXLI. p. 746. The plan is only given here to illustrate bygone conceptions. I am rejoiced to see that Dr Judeich in his recent _Topographie von Athen_, 1905, accepts the main outlines of Prof. Dörpfeld’s topography. See his Plan I. [292] For a full statement of this view see Dr Frazer, _Pausanias_, Vol. V. p. 484, and Prof. Ernest Gardner, _Ancient Athens_, p. 141. I regret to see that Prof. Ernest Gardner translates καὶ τὸ _ὑπ’ αὐτὴν_ πρὸς νότον μάλιστα τετραμμένον ‘and the district _outside it_ to the Southward.’ [293] Paus. I. 18. 6 and 7, and I. 19. 1. [294] Paus. I. 19. 1. For a full account of this Olympieion and Pythion which, save for the mistaken identification, do not concern us here, see my _Myth. and Mon. of Anc. Athens_, p. 184. [295] Plut. _de Exil._ VI. ἆρα οὖν ξένοι καὶ ἀπόλιδες εἰσὶν Ἀθηναίων οἱ μεταστάντες ἐκ Μελίτης εἰς Διωμίδα ὅπου καὶ μῆνα Μεταγειτνιῶνα καὶ θυσίαν ἐπώνυμον ἄγουσι τοῦ μετοικισμοῦ τὰ Μεταγείτνια, τὴν πρὸς ἑτέρους γειτνιάσιν εὐκόλως καὶ ἱλαρῶς ἐκδεχόμενοι καὶ στέργοντες; οὐκ ἂν εἴποις. Attention was first drawn to the importance of this passage by Prof. Dörpfeld. [296] Plut. _Vit. Them._ 22 πλήσιον δὲ τῆς οἰκίας κατεσκεύασεν ἐν Μελίτῃ τὸ ἱερόν οὗ νῦν τὰ σώματα τῶν θανατουμένων.... [297] Plat. _Parmenid._ 126 C. [298] Dem. LIV. 7 ... παρῆλθε πρὸς Μελίτην ἄνω. [299] Ar. _Av._ 999 ἐγὼ Μέτων, ὃν οἶδεν Ἕλλας χὠ Κολωνός, Schol. ... ἐπὶ Ἀψεύδους δὲ τοῦ Πυθοδώρου ἡλιοτρόπιον ἐν τῇ νῦν οὔσῃ ἐκκλησίᾳ πρὸς τῷ τείχει τῷ ἐν τῇ πνύκι. μήποτε οὖν τὸ χώριον φασί τινες ἐκεῖνο ἅπαν ᾧ περιλαμβάνεται καὶ ἡ Πνύξ, Κολωνός ἐστιν ὁ ἕτερος, ὁ μίσθιος λεγόμενος· οὕτως μέρος τι νῦν σύνηθες γέγονε τὶ Κολωνὸν καλεῖν τὸ ὄπισθεν τῆς μακρᾶς στοᾶς· ἀλλ’ οὔκ ἐστι. Μελίτη γὰρ ἅπαν ἐκεῖνο ὡς ἐν τοῖς ὁρισμοῖς γέγραπται τῆς πόλεως.
