In the foreground is the south colonnade (left) and the bouleuterion. Behind are two small buildings of uncertain use. Further back is the Leonidaion, the largest building at Olympia. Model: Kim Allen and team. Photo: Robert Broomfield. The model was made especially by the Trustees of the British Museum for the exhibition "The Ancient Olympic Games", at a scale of 1:200, showing what Olympia would have looked like in c. 100 BC, before the buildings and alterations made by the Romans.
