Monumental statue of Artemis, Temple of Apollo, Klaros

            The Temple of Artemis
The traces of a small temple, which is thought to have been dedicated to Artemis, are to the south of the Temple of Apollo. A small statue of her was unearthed nearby. The style is of the Ionic order, unlike the Doric styling of Apollo temple, and was built sometime in the sixth century. The Artemis statue, found near the altar in front of the temple, was inscribed with a dedication from the first priest. Also near the temple are six votive stones that were dedicated to various gods and goddesses. One is to Artemis of Miletus, the other to Poseidon. During the excavations at Claros, a number of statues and well-executed friezes were recovered. Many fragments remain at the site, while the best examples were removed for display in the Archaeological Museum at Izmir.
