Story · Eleusinion
You're standing at the Eleusinion, on the lower north slope of the Acropolis, just above the ancient Agora. Along its western edge ran the Panathenaic Way, the great festival road of Athens. This was the city sanctuary of Demeter, goddess of grain, and her daughter Kore, also known as Persephone.
