The Mt. Lykaion Excavation and Survey Project Survey and Excavation Lykaion Mt
excavating at the Birthplace of Zeus The Mt. Lykaion Excavation and Survey Project by david gilman romano and mary e. voyatzis www.penn.museum/expedition 9 Village of Ano Karyes on the eastern slopes of Mt. Lykaion. The Sanctuary of Zeus is above the village and beyond view of this photograph. in the 3rd century BCE, the Greek poet Callimachus wrote a Hymn to Zeus asking the ancient and most powerful Greek god whether he was born in Arcadia on Mt. Lykaion or in Crete on Mt. Ida. My soul is all in doubt, since debated is his birth. O Zeus, some say that you were born on the hills of Ida; others, O Zeus, say in Arcadia; did these or those, O Father lie? “Cretans are ever liars.” These two traditions relating to the birthplace of Zeus were clearly known in antiquity and have been transmitted to the modern day. It was one of the first matters that the village leaders in Ano Karyes brought to our attention when we arrived there in 2003. We came to discuss logistical support for our proposed project to initiate a new excavation and survey project at the nearby Sanctuary of Zeus. Situated high on the eastern slopes of Mt. Lykaion, Ano Karyes, with a winter population of 22, would become our base of operations, and the village leaders representing the Cultural Society of Ano Karyes would become our friends and collaborators in this endeavor. We were asked very directly if we could prove that Zeus was born on Mt. Lykaion. In addition, village leaders raised another historical matter related to the ancient reference by Pliny, a 1st century CE author, who wrote that the athletic festival at Mt. -

Reference Evapotranspiration
International Journal of Geo-Information Article Reference Evapotranspiration (ETo) Methods Implemented as ArcMap Models with Remote-Sensed and Ground-Based Inputs, Examined along with MODIS ET, for Peloponnese, Greece Stavroula Dimitriadou and Konstantinos G. Nikolakopoulos * Department of Geology, University of Patras, 26504 Rion, Greece; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +30-261-099-759-2 Abstract: The present study develops ArcMap models to implement the following three methods: FAO-56 Penman–Monteith (FAO PM), Hargreaves–Samani (HS) and Hansen, with the former used as a reference. Moreover, three models implementing statistical indices (RMSD, MB, NMB) are also created. The purpose is threefold, as follows: to investigate the variability in the daily mean reference evapotranspiration (ETo) for the Decembers and Augusts during 2016–2019, over Pelopon- nese, Greece. Furthermore, to investigate the agreement between the methods’ ETo estimates, and examine the former along with MODIS ET (daily) averaged products. The study area is a complex Mediterranean area. Meteorological data from sixty-two stations under the National Observatory of Athens (NOA), and MODIS Terra LST products, have been employed. FAO PM is found sensitive to Citation: Dimitriadou, S.; wind speed and depicts interactions among climate parameters (T, evaporative demand and water Nikolakopoulos, K.G. Reference availability) in the frame of climate change. The years 2016–2019 are four of the warmest since the Evapotranspiration (ETo) Methods preindustrial era. Hargreaves–Samani’s estimations for the Decembers of 2016–2019 were almost Implemented as ArcMap Models with identical to MODIS ET, despite their different physical meaning. However, for the Augusts there are Remote-Sensed and Ground-Based considerable discrepancies between the methods’ and MODIS’s estimates, attributed to the higher Inputs, Examined along with MODIS evaporative demand in the summertime. -

Church, Society, and the Sacred in Early Christian Greece
CHURCH, SOCIETY, AND THE SACRED IN EARLY CHRISTIAN GREECE DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By William R. Caraher, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2003 Dissertation Committee: Approved By Professor Timothy E. Gregory, Adviser Professor James Morganstern Professor Barbara Hanawalt _____________________ Adviser Professor Nathan Rosenstein Department of History ABSTRACT This dissertation proposes a social analysis of the Early Christian basilicas (4th-6th century) of Southern and Central Greece, predominantly those in the Late Roman province of Achaia. After an introduction which places the dissertation in the broader context of the study of Late Antique Greece, the second chapter argues that church construction played an important role in the process of religions change in Late Antiquity. The third chapter examines Christian ritual, architecture, and cosmology to show that churches in Greece depended upon and reacted to existing phenomena that served to promote hierarchy and shape power structures in Late Roman society. Chapter four emphasizes social messages communicated through the motifs present in the numerous mosaic pavements which commonly adorned Early Christian buildings in Greece. The final chapter demonstrates that the epigraphy likewise presented massages that communicated social expectations drawn from both an elite and Christian discourse. Moreover they provide valuable information for the individuals who participated in the processes of church construction. After a brief conclusion, two catalogues present bibliographic citations for the inscriptions and architecture referred to in the text. The primary goal of this dissertation is to integrate the study of ritual, architecture, and social history and to demonstrate how Early Christian architecture played an important role in affecting social change during Late Antiquity. -
The Fortifications of Arkadian Poleis in the Classical and Hellenistic Periods
THE FORTIFICATIONS OF ARKADIAN POLEIS IN THE CLASSICAL AND HELLENISTIC PERIODS by Matthew Peter Maher BA, The University of Western Ontario, 2002 BA, The University of Western Ontario, 2005 MA, The University of British Columbia, 2007 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Classics) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) March 2012 © Matthew Peter Maher, 2012 Abstract This study comprises a comprehensive and detailed account of the historical development of Greek military architecture and defensive planning specifically in Arkadia in the Classical and Hellenistic periods. It aims to resolve several problems, not least of all, to fill the large gap in our knowledge of both Arkadian fortifications and the archaeology record on the individual site level. After establishing that the Arkadian settlements in question were indeed poleis, and reviewing all previous scholarship on the sites, the fortification circuit of each polis is explored through the local history, the geographical/topographical setting, the architectural components of the fortifications themselves, and finally, the overall defensive planning inherent in their construction. Based an understanding of all of these factors, including historical probability, a chronology of construction for each site is provided. The synthesis made possible by the data gathered from the published literature and collected during the field reconnaissance of every site, has confirmed a number of interesting and noteworthy regionally specific patterns. Related to chronology, it is significant that there is no evidence for fortified poleis in Arkadia during the Archaic period, and when the poleis were eventually fortified in the Classical period, the fact that most appeared in the early fourth century BCE, strategically distributed in limited geographic areas, suggests that the larger defensive concerns of the Arkadian League were a factor. -
Borowiec, L., Salata, S. 2017. Ants of the Peloponnese, Greece
P O L I S H JOU R NAL OF ENTOM O LOG Y POL SKIE PISMO ENTOMOL OGICZ N E VOL. 86: 193–236 Lublin 30 September 2017 DOI: 10.1515/pjen-2017-0013 Ants of the Peloponnese, Greece (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) * LECH BOROWIEC , SEBASTIAN SALATA Department of Biodiversity and Evolutionary Taxonomy, University of Wrocław, Przybyszewskiego 65, 51-148 Wrocław, Poland ABSTRACT. This paper relates to material obtained during two field trips to the Peloponnese in 2013 and 2016. With the inclusion of some hitherto unpublished ant material, it gives new records from a total of 92 sampling localities. 129 species (including morphospecies not attributed to any known taxon) of ants have been recorded from the Peloponnese (southern Greece), 27 of which have been recorded from this region for the first time. Lasius reginae and 5 other morphospecies attributed only to species complexes are new to Greece. KEY WORDS: ants, faunistics, Greece, Peloponnese, new national records, new regional records. INTRODUCTION Even though it has been explored for almost two centuries, the ant fauna of Greece remains poorly known – most records are based on regional faunistic investigations. The first comprehensive checklist was compiled only recently by LEGAKIS (2011). Recent years, however, have witnessed an upsurge in studies of the ant fauna of Greece (BOROWIEC & SALATA 2012, 2013, 2014a, 2014b, 2017a, 2017b, BRAČKO et al. 2016, SALATA & BOROWIEC 2015a, 2015b, 2015c, 2016, 2017). It turns out that the ant fauna of Greece, with about 280 recorded species, is probably the richest in Europe, including some 20 species endemic to this country. Much of the material collected, especially from taxonomically difficult genera like Temnothorax NYLANDER, 1856 and Tetramorium MAYR, 1855, still awaits identification. -
