Another great historical site on Philopappou Hill with a very interesting history, amazing place to wander around for hours reading signs and getting up close and personal with the history without crowds of people (at least in winter) highly recommend exploring the many carved rock tombs and ancient homes in the area. Deaf man's cave and the \prison of socrates\ are both very close by.

The burial monument, known as \Kimonia Mnimata\ is located a few meters south of the Double Gate. It was associated with the tomb of Olympian Kimon, father of General Miltiadis, winner of the battle of Marathon. In fact, it is a tomb of the 3rd c. AD, as evidenced by the inscription engraved above the entrance of the tomb, where the name of a Sosimian is written.
