The facility was gradually embellished from the Archaic period onward, so that by the 2nd century B.C. it consisted of six chambers providing access to three deep draw basins. These were supplied with water from four huge reservoirs through conduits excavated hundreds of meters back under the forum.; Peirene probably suffered little in the attack on Corinth by the Roman general Mummius, and was one of the first structures rebuilt in Corinth. From the early Roman period, the facade had Doric half-columns between the arches which frame the old antechambers. The second story here was probably a solid wall with engaged Ionic half-columns. The sunken rectangle at the center is a draw basin accessed by a short broad stair. Waterspouts in the sides were served by large conduits running under the courtyard floor. ; Following the partial destruction of the earlier phase, perhaps by earthquake, the east and west apses were added in Late Antiquity and the reused marble columns and their decorative “outlookers” in front of the facade are Byzantine additions. In later centuries, the ground level rose and the court was occupied by a small chapel and cemetery. Even after the fountain and courtyard were completely buried, the spring continued to provide water for the village fountains and numerous wells.; Myth records two origins for the spring. In one Poseidon’s lover Peirene literally dissolved into tears when Artemis accidentally killed her son Cenchrias. The other attributes its creation to the hoof print of the winged horse Pegasus when he stamped in irritation after being bridled by Bellerophon.","Corinth:Monument:Peirene",""

The Sacred Spring complex has a long history lasting from the early 8th century B.C into the Hellenistic period with several phases of extensive remodelling. The original simple springhouse was embellished with interconnecting architectural features in the late 6th century B.C. On the lower level it consists of an underground spring house with interior supports and a three column facade. As the ground level rose, the facade was closed off and the spring was accessed by a staircase. In front of the spring was an extensive open area containing an earth altar and wooden bleachers for seating. This lower stage was separated from the area to the west by a triglyph and metope wall. The upper area contained a small apsidal building. For the viewer below, this building, with its three column facade, made a visual link with the fountain below. A water channel and a crawl space physically linked the apsidal building to the lower area by a secret door in the triglyph and metope wall.; The space was probably used for processions, sacrifices, drama performances, music and dance. One school of thought connects the spring the apsidal building and the Temple of Apollo above with an oracular cult. More recently it has been suggested that Kotyto, one of the four daughters of Timandros burnt by the Dorians in the Temple of Athena, was commemorated here. Her festival involved young men dressed as women dancing to orgiastic music. One component of the rite was immersion or initiation in water.; At the far west end of the triglyph wall is a statue base inscribed “Lysippus epoiesen” or “Lysippus made it”. Lysippus was a sculptor from the neighboring city of Sikyon whose work earned him world-wide fame in the Hellenistic and Roman periods.","Corinth:Monument:Sacred Spring",""
