Sanctuary of Artemis Limnatis at Messene

            Established in the 4th-3rd centuries BCE, this sanctuary is situated on the slopes of Mount Ithome and within the city walls of ancient Messene in the Peloponnese. The sanctuary was dedicated to Artemis Limnatis and comprises an ionic temple with two Corinthian columns in anta on the front. The elaborate pavement of the spacious antechamber is well-preserved, as is the huge threshold of the entrance to the cella. The altar is also preserved. This temple was mentioned by the Greek historian Pausanias, in his "Description of Greece".
