The Monument of the Eponymous Heroes, located in the Ancient Agora of Athens (No. 10 on the map on the right), Greece and adjacently situated near the Metroon (old Bouleuterion, No. 11), was a marble podium that bore the bronze statues of the heroes representing the phylai (tribes) of Athens. The monument was surrounded by a wooden fence on stone posts. All that remains on the modern agora are pieces of a long (over ) statue base with the space for ten statues and two tripods at the ends with partially restored fence. Large size and prominent position make the monument into a landmark for the agora visitors. Read more on Wikipedia
