Abstract
• The hypothesis of the solonian inauguration of the new agora of Athens, which has been recently doubted, may be reinforced by the study of the archaic cults of the agora like those of Zeus, Apollo Patroos and Demeter. These divinities are linked to some new institutions established by Solon in order to solve the stasis, like the Counsel or the Heliaea, body which initiates a more active participation of the demos in the political and judicial activity of the city.
