The Heraion of Argos is an ancient sanctuary in the Argolid, Greece, dedicated to Hera, whose epithet "Argive Hera" appears in Homer's works. Hera herself claims to be the protector of Argos in Iliad IV, 50–52): "The three towns I love best are Argos, Sparta and Mycenae of the broad streets". The memory was preserved at Argos of an archaic, aniconic pillar representation of the Great Goddess. The site, which might mark the introduction of the cult of Hera in mainland Greece, lies northeast of Argos between the sites of Mycenae and Midea, two important Mycenaean cities. The traveller Pausanias, visiting the site in the 2nd century CE, referred to the area as Prosymna (Προσύμνη).

Tomb of Epano Phournos is called a tholos tomb in Mycenae. The tomb was named after the site of the same name, which in turn was named after the Tholos tomb itself, which the farmers used to call Phournos. The Tholos Tomb is located on the western slope of Panagitsa Hill about 450 m west of the upper town of Mycenae. According to Alan Wace's classification, it belongs to the first Tholos group and dates to the Late Helladic period. It was built around 1500 BC and, together with the Cyclopean tomb, is one of the oldest tholos tombs near Mycenae. Since the grave is in acute danger of collapsing, access has been blocked.
