Abstract
Abstract:Excavations at the Sanctuary of Nemean Zeus during the period 1997–2001 made significant additions to our knowledge of the site in all its periods from the prehistoric to the modern. Chief among them in the Archaic period are the Early Temple of Zeus, the Early Stadium, the Heroön of Opheltes, and the hippodrome. From the Early Hellenistic period come a well and a reservoir, in addition to increased evidence of a Macedonian presence. These discoveries and others point the way for future excavations to reveal more of the physical aspects of the Nemean Games, particularly in the age of Pindar.
