The Attalid ruler Eumenes ll built and filled a library at Pergamum between 197 and 159 BCE. Nineteenth century excavators argued for the identification of a series of rooms behind the north stoa of the temple of Athena on the acropolis as housing this library, but more recent scholarship has called this identification into significant doubt (Coqueugniot 2013).
