Lonely Planet review for Temenos of Pandrossos

The northern porch of the Erechtheion consists of six graceful Ionic columns; on the floor are the fissures supposedly cleft by Poseidon's trident. This porch leads into the Temenos of Pandrossos, where, according to mythology, the sacred olive brought forth by Athena grew. To the south of here was the Cecropion - King Cecrops' burial place.
