| Abstract: | After a detailed examination of the literary, epigraphic, and archaeological evidence, the authors argue that the prominent Archaic Doric temple at Corinth was dedicated to Apollo. It is this temple with its bronze statue that Pausanias (2.3.6) saw on his right as he left the area of the forum, taking the road to Sikyon. In further support of this identification, the authors present a previously unpublished Archaic terracotta pinax, possibly inscribed with a dedication to Apollo. The plaque was found during excavations at Corinth in 1902 and is now, apparently, lost. | |
