Iphigenia in Tauris
The Taurian temple of Artemis where Iphigenia serves as priestess and where captured Greeks are ritually sacrificed.
Pylades, do you think this is the hall of the goddess, for which we set sail from Argos?
Do you see the spoils hanging from the very walls?
Orestes:
Hellenica
A sanctuary used as refuge by Stasippus' followers.
Now when the followers of Stasippus perceived what was going on, they rushed out by the gates leading to Pallantium, gained refuge in the temple of Artemis before they could be overtaken by their pursuers, and after shutting themselves in, remained quiet there.
