Temple of Castor and Pollux - Dioscuri
Temple of the Dioscuri or temple of Castor and Pollux. In reality the temple is located inside the sanctuary of the chthonic divinities and it is therefore probable that it was built in honor of the divinities of the earth (Demeter and Kore) and not of the Dioscuri.
