The building was beneath the iconic circular Tholos of the Asklepieion, dedicated to Apollo and his mythical son, Asklepius. The latter is dated to the 4th century BC.
The building is rectangular in shape, has a basement the size of the columned ground floor with a mosaic floor. The structure dates to roughly 600 BC.
