The original description in the catalogue reads: "The Old Metropolis (Cathedral): Panaghia Gorgoepekoös, also called St Eleutherios. It probably dates from the 9th century. The walls contain a mass of fragments of classical and early Byzantine sculpture. The church is small for a cathedral, but Byzantine Athens was not a large place. Section and plan." |
