e/Stoa Amphiaraion

Information
has gloss	eng: Stoa Amphiaraion (also known as the Enkoimeterion) is located on the east side of the Sanctuary of Amphiaraios, southeast of the Theater. It was built circa 360 BC. The two-aisled stoa opens towards the southeast with an outer Doric colonnade of forty-one columns and an inner Ionic colonnade of seventeen columns. Before its destruction, two small rooms was separated from the rest of the stoa by two columns with a screen between them, with a bench running the length of the back wall. Pilgrims would migrate to the stoa and sleep there, awaiting an oracle's advice. It is a possibility that the rooms may have served shelter for female pilgrims. A level area in front of the stoa may have been used as a track. It is also probable that this stoa replaced an existing one, located farther southwest on the terrace where the later row of dedications stood.
