The great building known as the Odeon of Pericles, which was used for the musical contests
and the training of the tragic and comic choirs, was burnt down during the siege of
Sylla (86 B.C.), and built again by Ariobarzanes (
30 ).
The excavation of this Odeon has not yet been achieved, and the architectural
pieces coming from this site are very scarce. One of the angles was penetrating into
the theatre of Dionysus.
