The Athenian Festival of Dionysus was held annually at the Theatre and Sanctuary below the Akropolis. The major prize of the festival, a bronze tripod, was awarded to the wealthy individual, the 'choregos', who sponsored (paid for) the winning entry. It became customary for the choregos to erect a choragic monument to honour the god. The site of the monuments became known as the Street of the Tripods. Only one remains 'intact' in Athens. The monument of Lysicrates (Lie-SIC-ra-teez), choregos and winner in 334 BCE, still stands. The only other known example is the remains of the choragic monument of Thrasyllus, from 319 BCE. Destroyed in 1826 during the Greek War of Independence the remains, a pair of columns that framed the original tripod and its plinth, can be seen against the Akropolis wall, above the Theatre of Dionysus.
