(Χαλκίοικος), " the goddess of the brazen house," a surname of Athena at Sparta, derived from the brazen temple which the goddess had in that city, and which also contained her statue in brass. This temple, which continued to exist in the time of Pausanias, was believed to have been commenced by Tyndareus, but was not completed till many years later by the Spartan artist Gitiadas. (Paus. 3.17.3, 10.5.5; C. Nep. Paus. 5; Plb. 4.22.) Respecting the festival of the Chalcioecia celebrated at Sparta, see Dict. of Ant. s. v. Χαλκιοίκια.
