Modern Description: Just inland, on the floor of the valley and in the final sweep of the riverbed, can be seen the partially uncovered foundations of a sanctuary, probably of the temple of Apollo Aegileos: the presence of a well-cut, square marble platform, a finely dressed stone well-mouth, and sundry blocks of marble suggests there was a public building or temple here, although the orientation of the building is not on the cardinal points. In this area a headless statue of Apollo (now in the National Archaeological Museum in Athens) with a dedicatory inscription to the god from two citizens, one Athenian and the other Thessalian, was discovered in 1880.
