Description
View looking north down what was the Stoa of Echo, depicting the entire east edge of the Sanctuary, with the remains of the smaller Stoa of Hestia in the foreground; Excavations have shown that the embankment of the narrow western side of the stadium was truncated after the mid-4th century BCE, when the Echo Stoa was built, which entirely separated the stadium from the sanctuary.
