The Ancient Agora of Argos was started during the 5th century BCE in the south of the city, on the crossroads from the Heraion of Argos, Corinth and Tegea. The building program was completed at the end of the 4th century BCE. During the Classical and the Hellenistic periods, the agora was surrounded by porticoes and buildings which can hardly be distinguished at present under the later architectural phases.
