gymnasium, a small sanctuary of Dionysus, a number of other public buildings and houses. The ancient road, which connected Rhamnous and the neighboring demes and leads to the town, was flanked by impressive burial monuments. On a prominent spot near the ancient road lies the terrace of the sanctuary of Nemesis built in the 6th century B.C. In the 5th century B.C. the large temple of Nemesis was constructed in the Doric order with 6 columns on its narrow sides and 12 on its long sides. The famous statue of the goddess, a work by Pheidias' pupil Agoracritus, was housed inside it. According to Pausanias the statue was of the specific piece of Parian marble which the Persians had brought with them to use for the trophy of their victory at the Battle of Marathon. But the goddess Nemesis punished them for their overconfidence (hybris). Its relief base (ca. 420 B.C.) depicted Helen being brought by Leda to her divine mother Nemesis. Themis was worshipped in the smaller temple, dated in the 5th century B.C. This building was used as a treasury of the main temple of Nemesis. Noteworthy statues were found inside it, including a statue of Themis (now in the National Archaeological Museum, c. 300 B.C.). Its base bears an inscription with the name of the local sculptor Chaerestratus. Around the end of the 4th century A.D., the first Christians destroyed the statue of Nemesis and the monuments, and the whole area declined. However, the remains of the sanctuary and the fortress have never been entirely buried in the ground and were visible to travelers and visitors of the region ever since.
