Treasuries and the gifts they house

Thêsauroi or Treasure Houses  Dedications, set up by individual or community, were to celebrate victories, pay a vow or a fine, express gratitude for success or safety, and advertise a donor.  When on display, a small gift from an individual becomes a nationalized gift and serves to produce a better relationship with the gods.  Dedications, set up by individual or community, were to celebrate victories, pay a vow or a fine, express gratitude for success or safety, and advertise a donor.  When on display, a small gift from an individual becomes a nationalized gift and serves to produce a better relationship with the gods. Any place or building where the currency,items of high value, or gifts to the gods are kept.

Characteristics of Treasuries  Extraterritorial dedications: Built far away from the cities which commissioned them (Athenians and Siphnians as acting patrons).  Retain a special link with the cities that built them: they house votive offerings of the citizenry.  Built by states, not by clans or individuals (unless a tyrant): All citizens become collective dedicates.  Building materials could possess the native stone from the location of the treasury or could be imported from the commissioning city at a great cost.  Extraterritorial dedications: Built far away from the cities which commissioned them (Athenians and Siphnians as acting patrons).  Retain a special link with the cities that built them: they house votive offerings of the citizenry.  Built by states, not by clans or individuals (unless a tyrant): All citizens become collective dedicates.  Building materials could possess the native stone from the location of the treasury or could be imported from the commissioning city at a great cost.

Treasuries And Delphi  The Athenian Treasury, currently restored, was originally built around 500 B.C. to display stolen goods from the Battle of Marathon.  City-states around Delphi erected treasuries in order to house gifts given to Apollo in appreciation for his oracles and for other assistance given.  The Siphnian Treasury, established around 525 B.C., used caryatids as supports offering greater decoration.  The Athenian Treasury, currently restored, was originally built around 500 B.C. to display stolen goods from the Battle of Marathon.  City-states around Delphi erected treasuries in order to house gifts given to Apollo in appreciation for his oracles and for other assistance given.  The Siphnian Treasury, established around 525 B.C., used caryatids as supports offering greater decoration.

Dedications  Statues were the earliest type of gift but quickly crowded the more popular treasuries.  Votive offerings made of painted wood or terracotta were given by the poor.  Reliefs became used on the buildings, themselves, as they proved to vary in size and quality and were less expensive.  Statues were the earliest type of gift but quickly crowded the more popular treasuries.  Votive offerings made of painted wood or terracotta were given by the poor.  Reliefs became used on the buildings, themselves, as they proved to vary in size and quality and were less expensive.
