The site of Kalydon in the Ionian region west of the small village of Kokori was abandoned in 30 B.C. Nothing remains of the temple other than the stylobate and crepis. The remains of the Artemis temple indicate it was constructed about 360 B.C. and had a marble roof. The site had been occupied from at least the Early Minoan  to the present. Three temple building periods have been detected, each of them oriented north-south with the entrance on the south.
