This article is about bouleuterion in Sanctuary of Olympia. For other uses, see Bouleuterion.
The Bouleuterion of Olympia was a building within the Sanctuary of Olympia in Elis, Greece.
The bouleuterion was where council of Olympia dealt with the matters of the sanctuary, whether the appointment of a priest, settling disagreements between the competitors and the judges, or deciding on statues.[1] The building also housed the records of the sanctuary, as well as the altar and statue of the god Zeus in his guise as Zeus Horkios, before whom athletes and their trainers swore the Olympic Oath.[1]
