The Metroon
Metroon (metrôon) was the name given to a building dedicated to the mother goddess Cybele, Rhea, or Demeter in Ancient Greece. The Metroon in the Ancient Agora of Athens was originally used as the meeting chamber of the boule or city council. At the end of the 5th century BCE, when a new Bouleuterion was built, the building was dedicated to the mother goddess. The Metroon also housed the official archives of the city.
