The rebels burned <a href="/wiki/Sardis" title="Sardis">Sardis</a>, but were defeated and the Eretrian general <a href="/wiki/Eualcides" title="Eualcides">Eualcides</a> was killed. <a href="/wiki/Darius_I_of_Persia" class="mw-redirect" title="Darius I of Persia">Darius</a> made a point of punishing Eretria during his invasion of Greece.

The first temple is dated to the Geometric period and was situated probably near the harbour, as the sea then reached the area of the Agora. The <i>hecatompedon</i> (hundred-footer) apsidal edifice is the earliest in its type among those mentioned by Homer, and slightly after the hecatompedon temple of <a href="/wiki/Hera" title="Hera">Hera</a> on the island of <a href="/wiki/Samos" title="Samos">Samos</a>. It was flanked to the south by another apsidal building which also came to light: the so-called <i>Daphniforio</i> or "space with laurels" (7.5 x 11.5m) is the most ancient edifice in Eretria, related to the early cult of Apollo in <a href="/wiki/Delphi" title="Delphi">Delphi</a>. </p><p>At the centre of this edifice were preserved the clay bases supporting the laurel trunks that propped up the roof. In the early sixteenth century a second hecatompedon temple was erected through earth fills upon its Geometric predecessor, on a solid artificial terrace. This temple had wooden columns (six at the narrow sides and nineteen at the longer sides), and was subsequently covered with earth in order to build the later and most renowned of all temples in the city. </p><p>Construction started at the late sixth century BC (520-490 BC) and the temple was perhaps still unfinished when the <a href="/wiki/Achaemenid_Empire" title="Achaemenid Empire">Persians</a> razed the city in 490 BC. <a href="/wiki/Poros_stone" title="Poros stone">Poros stone</a> and <a href="/wiki/Marble" title="Marble">marble</a> were the materials used for this <a href="/wiki/Doric_order" title="Doric order">Doric</a> peristyle (surrounded by colonnades) temple (6 x 14 columns). It had a <i>prodomos</i> (anteroom) and an <i>opisthodomos </i>(back section) arranged with two columns in antis; the cella (in Greek <i>sekos</i> was divided into three naves by two interior colonnades. After the destruction of the city by the <a href="/wiki/Achaemenid_Empire" title="Achaemenid Empire">Persians</a>, the temple was repaired and remained in use; yet in 198 BC it was destroyed again, this time by the Romans, a fact which initiated the gradual abandonment and dilapidation of the monument until the first century BC.

These sculptures are impregnated by the rules of archaic plasticity; the analogies are rendered in an innovative manner, a precursor to the idealization and the force of the classical art.

As indicated by the architectural remains of the scene, the initial construction phase followed the invasion by the Persians and the reconstruction of the city in the fifth century BC, whereas the fourth century BC marked the site's peak. </p><p>A striking fact is the construction of the <i>cavea</i> (Gr. <span title="Ancient Greek (to 1453)-language romanization"><i lang="grc-Latn">koilo</i></span>, auditorium) on an artificial hill surrounded by numerous retaining walls, instead of taking advantage of the citadel's slopes. During the first building phase, the scene looked like a palace, disposed of five adjacent rectangle rooms and found itself at the same level as the circular orchestra, leading to it via three entrances. At its peak (fourth century BC), the theatre suffered transformations and was shaped to a large extent in its present form. The cavea comprised eleven tiers divided by ten staircases. The circular orchestra was transferred for 8m to the north, and was lowered by 3m. The scene was amplified by two backstages connected through a portico with an Ionic façade, thus raising above the orchestra. This difference in heights was evened up by a vaulted underground gallery, leading through the scene to the centre of the orchestra; this was in all probability the "charonian stairway" (stairs of <a href="/wiki/Hades" title="Hades">Hades</a>) allowing actors impersonating chthonic deities and the dead to appear and perform at the orchestra. </p><p>Local <a href="/wiki/Poros_stone" title="Poros stone">poros stone</a> was used for the foundation and limestone for the <a href="/wiki/Parodos" title="Parodos">parodoi</a> (passageways), which sloped to the orchestra in order to diminish the difference in height with the cavea.

Situated to the south of the town, between the baths and the Lower Gymnasium or the <a href="/wiki/Greek_wrestling" title="Greek wrestling">palaistra (wrestling area)</a>, it extends behind the small harbour, a detail that correlates the temenos with merchants who had their interests in Eretria.

Their worship in Eretria has also been attested by inscriptions, of which the most important is set on a limestone block to the left of the prodomos (anteroom) before the cella. </p><p>The temple of Isis was initially simple and oriented to the east, with a prodomos that was distyle (two-columned) in antis. The ceremonial clay statue of the goddess stood on a base within the cella. In front of the temple was the altar and nearby a small drain tank. The temple was reconstructed after the destruction of the city by the Romans in 198 BC: it then acquired a larger external prodomos on ameliorated foundations and was surrounded by porticoes on three sides (north, south and west). Only the south-west end of the portico was covered by a roof. The columns were later replaced by a parapet. At the centre of the east forecourt was a portal facing the entrance of the sanctuary. Fifteen more edifices and auxiliary spaces lied to the north, considered by the excavators as places of purification. Among them was a courtyard and an <i>andren</i> (dining hall for male residents), while one room of the complex had a superb <a href="/wiki/Mosaic" title="Mosaic">mosaic</a> floor featuring lozenges. </p><p>Excavations at the <i>temenos</i> sacred to Isis and other Egyptian deities were conducted in 1917 by the then Ephor of Antiquities for the island of Evia (Euboea), Ι.
