Next to the staircase and the large glass panel that allows a view of the plain of Elis, the hall with the wooden floor (parquet) which was originally designed to host temporary exhibitions, presents ancient artifacts from various archaeological sites on the periphery of the city of Elis and linked to settlements and small communities in the immediate sphere of influence of the ancient capital.

These are objects that were handed over or were found during excavations in areas adjacent to Elis, outside the boundaries of the archaeological site and its immediate surroundings: Markopoulo and Tragano, Stafidokampos, Agrapidochori and Kolokythas are some of them.

The exhibited works date from the Mycenaean to the late Roman period (1500 BC – 330 AD).

A characteristic group of exhibits are the imports from areas with which Elis had developed contacts, such as Athens (black figured lekythoi, vases with red figured decoration, black figured plates and Kylixes) and Corinth (lamps, cups, bronze amphorae).
