The treasuries of the Sanctuary of Olympia

The Treasuries of the Sanctuary of Olympia were small buildings erected by cities at the foot of Kronion in the Valley of Olympia, Greece.

Used to hold valuable offerings under the god Zeus' protection, the treasuries were visited by the misthios Kassandra during the Peloponnesian War.[1]

During the 428 BCE Olympic Games the treasuries holding the wealth of the families of Makar and Lelex the Ionian were stolen by their own children, Laneira and Menon. Kassandra was tasked to find the valuables as well as the thieves, and she confronted them, along with Makar and Lelex, at the ruins outside the Sanctuary.[2]
