Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Odeon of Athens or Odeon of Pericles in Athens was a 4000 m² odeon built at the foot of the south-east part of the Acropolis in Athens, to the left of the entrance to the Theatre of Dionysus. It was first built in 435 BC by Pericles for the musical contests that formed part of the Panathenaea, for audiences from the Theatre to shelter in in case of bad weather and for chorus rehearsals. Few remains of it now survive, but it seems to have been "adorned with stone pillars" (according to Vitruvius and Plutarch) and square instead of the usual circular shape for an odeon. It was covered in masts, yards and rigging from captured Persian ships, culminating in a cone like a tent - Pausanias wrote that the 1st century BC rebuild of it was "said to be a copy of Xerxes'' tent", and that might also apply to the original building.
