Remains of the Old Temple of Athena built into the northern wall of the Acropolis by Themistocles, circa 478 BC.[4] More recently, scholars have attributed the older remains, initially attributed to the inner H-Architektur, to the close Hekatompedon temple, dating the temple of Athena Polias to the last third of the 6th century BC and identifying its dimensions with the entirety of the foundations excavated by Dörpfeld.[7] The Old Temple of Athena Polias is often dated to[6] 510/500 BC.[8] There are many speculations that the old temple of Athena was rebuilt by the Athenians once they took over Athens again.[5] Frazer and Michaelis believe that the temple was not the old temple of Athena but, a new temple in the same location where the Erechtheion stood.[5] There were other scholars that did not agree with Dörpfeld's suggestion that the old temple of Athena was rebuilt and that the building was destroyed. ./cache/en-wikipedia-org-3762.html ./txt/en-wikipedia-org-3762.txt
