Theorodokoi (Greek: θεωροδόκοι or θεαροδόκοι) in Ancient Greece were sacred envoy-receivers, whose duty was to host and assist the Theoroi (θεωροί) "viewers" before Panhellenic Games and Festivals. Theorodokos was sometimes appointed by the community in which he lived but sometimes by the community that sent out the Theoroi.
