Archaeological Museum of Chaeronea

The Archaeological Museum of Chaeronea was founded in 1907 by the Archaeological Society of Athens and presents, among other items, sculptures from the regions of Livadeia and Chaeronea, pottery from Prehistoric and later historical sites in the region, coins and weapons from the burial mound of the Macedonians, and the polyandrion (mass grave) of the Thebans who were defeated at the Battle of Chaeronea in 338 BC. Plenty of inscriptions and funerary stelae render the courtyard of the museum an open-air exhibition site.
