Notice the man-made structure underneath the Parthenon.

Close up of the Corner of the Parthenon. Notice the cracks above the pillars and the staple-like devices
designed to hold them together.

View from below the hill. The undeveloped land here is undeveloped since the days of Ancient Greece,
and the area where Socrates and others did their work. This is in the center of modern Day Athens.

 


Small Statues on a building next to the Parthenon. Only a couple of these are originals, can you tell which ones?

 


This is a view from the top of the Acropolis looking out over Athens. The structure to
the right is what's left of a Temple to Zeus, and the structure to the left is the First Olympic Stadium (1800's)
