            Il Tempio di Cerere o Atena (500 a.C.)                         
Costruito circa cinquant'anni prima del Tempio di Nettuno e 50 anni dopo quello di Hera ha delle particolarità che lo distingue dagli altri due templi e lo rendono uno dei più interessanti dell'architettura greca. Il frontone alto rende questo Tempio unico; il fregio dorico composto di larghi blocchi di calcare è anch'esso di tipo unico. La pianta interna, più semplice di quella degli altri due templi era composta dal pronaos e dalla cella nella quale non ci sono tracce della camera del tesoro (adyton).
Il pronaos aveva otto colonne con capitelli ionici, quattro sul fronte e due su ciascun lato. Delle colonne ioniche del pronaos si vedono solamente le basi e due capitelli ( i più antichi in stile ionico rinvenuti in Italia) sono custoditi nel vicino Museo Archeologico.
Il ritovamento di numerose statuette in terracotta (ex voto) raffiguranti Atena nelle stipi votive prova che il Tempio non era dedicato a Cerere ma alla dea della saggezza e delle arti Atena. Infatti il tempio sorge sulla parte più alta della città, luogo dove sono sempre stati eretti i templi in onore di Atena nelle città greche.                                                                                          

Built about fifty years before the Temple of Neptune and 50 years after that of Hera, it has particularities that distinguish it from the other two temples and make it one of the most interesting in Greek architecture. The high pediment makes this Temple unique; the Doric frieze composed of large limestone blocks is also unique. The internal plan, simpler than that of the other two temples, was composed of the pronaos and the cell in which there are no traces of the treasure chamber (adyton).
The pronaos had eight columns with Ionic capitals, four on the front and two on each side. Of the Ionic columns of the pronaos, only the bases can be seen and two capitals (the oldest in Ionic style found in Italy) are kept in the nearby Archaeological Museum.
The discovery of numerous terracotta statuettes (ex voto) depicting Athena in votive containers proves that the Temple was not dedicated to Ceres but to the goddess of wisdom and the arts Athena. In fact, the temple stands on the highest part of the city, a place where temples in honor of Athena have always been built in Greek cities.
