In the Agora or Market Place, Athens, Ancient Greece


An agora was more than a marketplace to the Ancient Greeks.

It was a place for open assemblies.

Greek citizens would meet in the agora to hear statements from their rulers.

The term agora is the origin of the term agoraphobia, which refers to a fear of public situations.
