    Hiking

    A heroon is a monument erected in commemoration of a hero, this one possibly dating to the 7th or 6th century BC. A heroon usually was not a real tomb as the body of the hero was not interred here, but it served as a place of cult worship. In a sense, the hero was still considered alive: he was offered meals and was imagined to be sharing feasts. His allegiance was seen as vitally important to the continued well being of the city.
