An archaeological collection existed in Chaironeia since 1870. Because
of the increasing bulk of the archaeological finds a Museum was necessary, which was build by the Archaeological Society and was inaugurated in 1907.
The Museum comprises:
•Neolithic collection
•Collection from the cemetery of
Abai
(vases, figurines)
•Epigraphic collection
The most important exhibits are:
•A clay model of a house, from the neolithic settlement at Magoula
Balomenou, Chaironeia.
•A clay female figurine painted with geometric patterns from
the neolithic settlement at Magoula Balomenou, Chaironeia.
