Picture 11 - Socrates' Cell


The stone foundation in this picture made up the Athenian jail. The particular cell pictured is believed to be where Socrates spent his time waiting to be executed, as it is the only cell that has drainage for a bath and enough room for many friends to visit, activities that were described in Plato's Phaedo.
