    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.

  • Developing a Biotic River Typology and Defining Reference Conditions in the Rivers of Greece: a Spatially- Based Approach
    Developing a biotic river typology and defining reference conditions in the rivers of Greece: a spatially- based approach A.N. Economou, S. Zogaris, S. Giakoumi, R. Barbieri & D. Petridis Abstract Developing a biotic river typology and reference conditions are vital components of ecological assessment using fish. In Greece, due to the absence of systematic monitoring data, fish sampling data from previous ichthyological surveys conducted primarily in the southern and western parts of the Hellenic Western Balkan ecoregion (Illies' ecoregion 6) were utilised. These surveys were undertaken for the purpose of fish conservation and were not designed with the prospect of ecological assessments. As a consequence, the sampling methodologies, the site selection criteria, the analytical procedures and the recorded parameters were not in line with the requirements of the WFD. A brief synopsis of the main environmental features of the Greek rivers which indicate a remarkable environmental heterogeneity is presented. Greece is a geographically fragmented mountainous country with a large number of medium and small sized rivers. Most rivers run through narrow mountain valleys that descend abruptly to the coast. Usually a mountain river becomes a lowland river very near its estuary. As a result many small and medium sized rivers have a flashy and erosive behavior and suffer from the lack of lowland riverine habitat. Lowland rivers are usually small; large floodplain rivers are very few, almost wholly restricted to northern Greece. Precipitation is irregularly distributed and hydrology varies remarkably among basins. Semi-arid regions and areas with seasonally arid conditions exist in parts of the south and southeast where localized karstic springs play an important role in enabling perennial water flows.

LIGNITE RESOURCES AND EXPLOITATION IN GREECE 1.1 GEOLOGY OF LIGNITE RESOURCES IN GREECE Lignite, is a carbonaceous sedimentary rock formed by the anaerobic decomposition of plant material and its main use is as fossil fuel, is also known as “brown coal”, and is produced from plant remains through coalification processes. These processes had as a result the enrichment of the plant remains with coal. The plant transformation in peat and the transition from peat (first stage of coalification) into anthracite (final stage of coalification) are related to time, temperature and pressure. The increase of the coalification degree affects the coal physico-chemical characteristics. Lignites were formed during the first stages of coalification, right after the peat formation. It is estimated that for the creation of a bed of lignite one (1) cubic metre thick, a period of 1000 to 4000 years is required. 2 Lignite calorific value is three (3) to seven (7) times lower than the heat value of the coal and five (5) to ten (10) times lower than that of oil. From the beginning of the Kainozoic era to the recent geological years, proper conditions in Greece contributed to lignite formation during certain periods and in specific areas.

  • Flora and Vegetation of Mt Likeo (Peloponnisos, Greece)
    Fl. Medit. 23: 15-47 doi: 10.7320/FlMedit23.015 Version of Record published online on 30 December 2013 Evagelos Baliousis Flora and vegetation of Mt Likeo (Peloponnisos, Greece) Abstract Baliousis, E.: Flora and vegetation of Mt Likeo (Peloponnisos, Greece). — Fl. Medit. 23: 15- 47. 2013. — ISSN: 1120-4052 printed, 2240-4538 online. The current investigation presents 701 specific and infraspecific taxa of the vascular flora of Mt Likeo, SW Peloponnisos. From these, 543 are reported from the mountain for the first time, 41 are Greek and 23 Balkan endemics. For each taxon, local distribution and habitat types are pre- sented. Trifolium strictum seems to be a first record for Peloponnisos. Some of the new records concern rare taxa in Greece, in Peloponnisos or regional endemics, which are, therefore, choro- logically significant, such as Arenaria guicciardii, Cota brachmannii, Thlaspi graecum, Alkanna methanaea, Campanula topaliana subsp. cordifolia, Sedum laconicum subsp. laconicum, Achillea grandifolia, Scrophularia scopolii. The main vegetation types are also briefly described. Key words: biodiversity, adventive plants, phytogeography. Introduction Mt Likeo or Diaforti is located in Peloponnisos and belongs to the homonymous unit according to the phytogeographical division in “Flora Hellenica” (Strid & Tan 1997). It is situated in the southwestern part of Peloponnisos between the Megalopolis basin and the town of Zaharo. It lies NNE of the Messinian peninsula and administratively belongs to the prefectures of Messenia, Arkadia and Ilia. Its name is correlated with ancient Greek history as it was regarded from the ancient arkades as the place of birth of Zeus and thus their holy mountain. The highest peaks of Mt Likeo (Fig.

  • Neotectonic Folds in the Central-Western Peloponnese, Greece
    Z. dt. Ges. Geowiss., 159/3, p. 485–494, 12 figs., Stuttgart, September 2008 Article Neotectonic folds in the central-western Peloponnese, Greece Ioannis Fountoulis & Ilias Mariolakos* Fountoulis, I. & Mariolakos, I. (2008): Neotectonic folds in the central-western Peloponnese, Greece. [Neotektonische Fal- tung auf der mittleren West-Peloponnes, Griechenland.] – Z. dt. Ges. Geowiss., 159: 485–494, Stuttgart. Abstract: The western Peloponnese, being very close to the Hellenic Trench, is one of the most active areas in Greece. The study area is located at the central western part of Peloponnese and it is developed in a NNW–SSE direction along 45 km, parallel to the Ionian Trench, which occurs at a distance of only 30–40 km to the west. Based on the morphotectonic studies of the neotectonic macrostructures of the central-western Peloponnese in many scales, it was concluded that the main neo- tectonic mega-structure is the “Megalopolis–Lykaeon–Minthi–Tetrazio Composite Morphotectonic Structure” (MELYMITE CMS) (1st order structure). The neotectonic deformation is expressed not only by faults, but also by folds which in some cases are the principal structures of the neotectonic deformation. Neotectonic folds occur in the Alpine formations as well as in the post-Alpine ones in various scales. The folds, and the ductile deformation in general, are not easily observed on the surface because of the intense presence of brittle tectonics. A rotational couple stress-fi eld could satisfactory incorporate and explain the brittle-ductile neotectonic structures of the area. Kurzfassung: Die westliche Peloponnes, recht nahe dem Hellenischen Graben gelegen, ist eines der tektonisch aktivsten Gebiete Griechenlands.
