Kalaureia is an island near the coast of Troezen in the Peloponnese, forming part of the modern island of Poros in the Aegean. It was the site of a sanctuary of Poseidon whose Doric temple was built around 520 BC, and during the Archaic period it was the center of an amphictyony, a religious league of seven Greek city-states including Athens, Aegina and Epidaurus. The orator Demosthenes took sanctuary at the temple of Poseidon after being condemned to death by pro-Macedonian forces, and died there on October 16, 322 BC. Swedish archaeologists have excavated the site since 1894, with renewed work beginning in 1997.
