It was two-storied. Porches spanning three posts on the front and five on the sides encircled the cella of the ground floor. Under the cella, an underground room had been dug out of the existing rock. The sides of the hewn rock were riveted with stone walls whose inner surface was covered with a thick layer of plaster, painted in a crimson red color. The floor of the room consisted of a solid mosaic of small white pebbles. A recess in the south side of the mosaic near the west end of the room shows that there existed
a stone staircase, through which one could descend to the basement. The walls of the cella on the ground floor were made of mudbricks covered with a thin plaster, while the posts of the porches were wooden on stone bases. The building had a pitched wooden roof with thin clay tiles for the cella and, at a lower level, sloping roofs that covered the porches around it. Its construction dates to the late 7th / early 6th century BC. It was dedicated to Asclepius as a hero and chthonic divinity. The building was demolished early in the 4th century BC, to provide space for the erection of the Tholos.

This paper outlines a proposal for the enhancement and development of the rich and dynamic monumental, cultural and environmental reserves of Naxos through increased social awareness and mobilization. For this purpose, a new form of a well-known management tool for the development of cultural tourism is proposed: the cultural routes.
The proposed cultural route of Naxos is titled: “Naxos. A unique, diachronic trip through European civilization”. It consists of one main and six secondary routes. Such a systematically and purposefully structured cultural and touristic package can be effectively implemented, provided that the necessary studies and synergies are set in place. We strongly believe that it will not only showcase Naxos’ dynamism in nature, culture and recreation, but, most importantly, it will shift the island's economy towards quality tourism with prospects of sustainability. This may be achieved by avoiding the deadlocks of physical deterioration and social overburdening resulting from uncontrolled tourism driven almost exclusively by a hunt for clients seeking sun-sea-relaxation.

Many unfinished sculptures were found there, among thema small sphinx and a number of small columns meant to serve as supports of votive sculptures. The sphinx and especially one of the columns date to the late 7th century BC. The sphinx and the column, together with comparable contemporary monuments from other Naxian sanctuaries, testify to the creation of the type of votive column-bearer of sculptures in the Early Archaic quarries of Naxos. Votive columns with sphinxes continued to be produced in Naxos during the 6th century BC. To the already known specimens an up to now unpublished fragment of a sphinx dating to the early third quarter of the 6th century is added. Naxian sculptors remained active until the Roman era. To their inherited skill testifies the good quality of an up to now unpublished sculpture in the Museum of Naxos representing a sphinx formed as the left solid side of a marble throne.In a rural sanctuary next to the ancient quarries of Melanes, Naxos, quarrymen dedicated also less valuable samples of their work.

Two building accounts from the sanctuary (IG IV21, no. 106-107) refer to an Aphrodition and a temple of Aphrodite. Until now, there were no satisfactory answers to the questions: a) whether the two goddesses were venerated in separate sanctuaries or in the same one and b) which of the Asklepieion’s two extant temples, apart from those of Asklepios and of Artemis, i.e. the temples Λ and L, could belong to Aphrodite. A recent, much more complete, reading of inscription no. 106, combined with a re-investigation of the remnants of the two temples in 2017, proved that Aphrodite and Themis were worshiped in the same sanctuary at Epidauros. Temple L was the temple of Aphrodite, and together with other structures surrounding it, including a shrine for Themis (Aphrodite’s companion in the legend of Hippolytos resurrected by Asklepios), would comprise the hieron, the sanctuary of the goddesses mentioned by Pausanias. It turns out that temple Λ
had been ruined long before the ancient traveler visited Epidauros.

Έκτοτε δεν υπήρξε ενδιαφέρον και φροντίδα για τα διάσπαρτα στο πεδίο λείψανα του ιπποδρόμου. Το 2010 και το 2013 οι συγγραφείς διεξήγαγαν έρευνα επανεντοπισμού, περαιτέρω διερεύνησης και τεκμηρίωσής τους. Αποδείχθηκε ότι σώζονται σε χαμηλό επίπεδο οι δύο τοίχοι πού όριζαν τις μακρές πλευρές του ιπποδρόμου, από το μήκος των οποίων και την απόσταση μεταξύ τους προκύπτει ότι ο στίβος του ιπποδρόμου είχε μήκος περί τα 300 μ. και πλάτος 118 μ. με ελαφρή
κλίση από τα ανατολικά προς τα δυτικά. Με βεβαιότητα τεκμηριώνεται η λειτουργία του από το τέλος του 5ου μέχρι το τέλος του 3ου π.Χ. αιώνα.

Τα αρχιτεκτονικά χαρακτηριστικά του είναι ιδιαίτερα: Το κτήριο είχε υπόγεια αίθουσα (πλάτους 3,6 μ., ωφέλιμου ύψους περ. 2,40 μ.), λαξευμένη στον φυσικό βράχο. Οι τοίχοι του υπογείου ήταν λιθόκτιστοι, καλυμμένοι με κονίαμα βαθυκόκκινου χρώματος. Σε καλή κατάσταση σώθηκε το ψηφιδωτό του δάπεδο με γραπτή διακόσμηση μελανού χρώματος. Τεκμήρια της κλίμακας καθόδου στην αίθουσα αυτή βρέθηκαν στις ανασκαφές του 2020. Το ισόγειο είχε αντίστοιχη κάτοψη με την αίθουσα του υπογείου. Οι τοίχοι του είχαν λίθινη κρηπίδα με πλίνθινη ανωδομή. Διέθετε όμως και περίσταση, οι στύλοι της οποίας ήταν ξύλινοι πάνω σε λίθινες βάσεις. Οι εξωτερικές διαστάσεις του κτηρίου είναι 8,20 μ. (πλήρες πλάτος) Χ 10,20 μ. (ανασκαμμένο τμήμα). Με βάση στοιχεία της αρχιτεκτονικής μορφής του χρονολογείται περί το 600 π.Χ., χρονολογία που συνάδει με την περίοδο ακμής της πόλεως της Επιδαύρου, που καταγράφουν γραμματειακές πηγές και άλλα αρχαιολογικά τεκμήρια.
Το οικοδόμημα καταστράφηκε ολοσχερώς (αφέθηκε κατά χώραν μόνον το ψηφιδωτό δάπεδο), στις αρχές του 4ου π.Χ. αι., λίγο πριν την ανέγερση της Θόλου. Η τελευταία το διαδέχθηκε χωρικά και λειτουργικά ως η νέα χθόνια «κατοικία» του Ασκληπιού. Ο υπόγειος χώρος του αρχαϊκού κτηρίου χρησιμοποιήθηκε ως χώρος ευλαβικής, όπως μαρτυρούν οι διαδοχικές μικρές πυρές, απόρριψης του υλικού του κατεδαφισθέντος κτηρίου που δεν μπορούσε να χρησιμοποιηθεί ξανά, αλλά και άλλων κτηρίων του ιερού που αποδομήθηκαν στο πλαίσιο της αναμόρφωσης του ευρύτερου χώρου για τις ανάγκες του μεγάλου οικοδομικού προγράμματος του 4ου π.Χ. αι. Η απόρριψη ολοκληρώθηκε με μεγάλη τελετουργική πυρά και τέλος σφραγίστηκε με στείρα επίχωση.
Το νέο αυτό κτήριο, έχοντας προφανώς την ίδια λειτουργία και ουσιαστικά την ίδια δομή με τη Θόλο, η οποία το αντικατέστησε, συμβάλλει καίρια στην ερμηνεία της λειτουργίας της Θόλου ως έδρα της λατρείας του χθόνιου Ασκληπιού, ανατροφοδοτεί τη συζήτηση σχετικά με την πρώιμη μορφή και οργάνωση του ιερού, και αποδεικνύει ότι οι αρχές του Ασκληπιείου ανάγονται στον 7ο και όχι τον 6ο π.Χ. αιώνα, όπως μέχρι τώρα πιστεύαμε.
