EPHEBE'UM (ἐφηβεῖον). A spacious apartment in the Greek gymnasium, where the youths performed their exercises in the presence of their masters. (Vitruv. v. 11. Strabo, v. 4. 7.) See the illustration s. GYMNASIUM (letter C), which will give an idea of its usual locality and relative size, as compared with the other divisions of the establishment.
