The agora was the main public area of ancient Palairos, occupying a plateau at the southwestern part of the city. Ruins of a long building, a stoa, have been revealed at the northern side of the plateau with a number of votive statue bases in the area before it. The water reservoirs at ancient Palairos, next to the northern wall are rectangular with rounded corners. They are separated by a thick wall and communicate via a clay duct. Their interior is plastered with hydraulic mortar as a means of insulation.
