The archaeological museum is in Paleopolis, built by the American Archaeological Mission, and mostly contains finds from excavations in the Sanctuary of the Great Gods. The first hall contains restored architectural members of the temple buildings, the second one works of sculpture and coins from the Sanctuary, the third one sculpture and ceramics, while the fourth hall hosts finds from cemeteries. The inscriptions found are housed in the atrium of the museum. Among the very important exhibits of the museum are the sub-Geometric canthari and parts of the marble frieze from the site of the former Sanctuary, the Panathenaic amphora with representation of a race on one side and Athena armed on the other, a black-figure kylix with scenes from the testing of new wine, a Persian gold brooch, a bilingual marble column that forbade entry to the uninitiated and many other great finds.
