A Monument Fit for a Goddess
Situated in the middle of the south side of the Upper Agora, the square Tychaion-monument had a canopy roof with four concave sides decorated with tiles in the shape of leaves.
The roof was supported by architrave-frieze blocks. This entablature in turn was carried by four columns and capitals, which are now missing. The columns were placed on top of square pedestals provided with a square plinth. Originally, a statue of the goddess Tyche stood in the centre of the monument, placed on a base.
