Note H — THE HETAERIA.

Numerous subterranean rooms are found in the southwestern quarter of Athens, the ancient cliff-city, which is now almost uninhabited. A certain part of the eastern base of the Museium contains three entrances, the central one somewhat dilapidated, that lead to two rooms 10–11 feet in length and a well-like air-passage connected with lower corridors. These cliff-chambers now bear the name of hē fylakē tu Socratus, Socrates’ dungeon, and are marked as such by oral tradition.
