Ancient Oropos

We move northward now to Camping Ramenous near Marathon. Making the best of our last few days with the car we head north up to Ancient Oropos near Kalamos.
This sanctuary was dedicated to Amphiaraos an like the one at Epidarous was a healing centre of the fourth century BC.
Here though in the Enkoimitirion  there was a different twist, they were wrapped in a fresh bloodied goat skin for the night and then treated according to the dreams they had or Nightmares most likely.
