  • Paros Bits and Pieces
    Paros bits and pieces Discover the genuine part of the island! Sightseeing: ¨ Churches / Monasteries / Monuments Ekatontapyliani Church, Parikia Situated in Parikia, capital of Paros and founded in the early 4th century AD. Its name “Ekatontapiliani” means the Church with the Hundred Doors. According to tradition, the church has 99 doors and a secret door will open when the church of Ayia Sofia in Istanbul will become Orthodox again. Monastery of Ayios Antonios, Marpissa Founded in 1597, it is one of the oldest monasteries on the island. It has been inhabited by monks since 1642 but closed in 1834, due to the small number of monks in situ. In springtime, the monastery is open to the public and tours are offered. The Frankish Castle, Parikia Built in the 1200s on what scholars believed to be the basis of an ancient temple, that is dated all the way back to 530 BC. It stands out for its splendid architecture. Needless to say, a visit to Paros is incomplete without a visit to this magnificent castle which stands as mute testimony to the rich virile past of Paros. Ancient marble quarries, Marathi An interior road from Lefkes and Marpissa that leads to the renowned marble quarries of Marathi. This is the place where one of the finest varieties of marble is found. Some of the greatest masterpieces like the world-famous Venus de Milo and Hermes of Praxiteles were sculpted using the Parian marble. Ayios Georgios, o Thalassitis, Logaras A small one-aisled basilica, built between the 13th and 14th century. It is located between the villages of Piso Livadi and Logaras and is one of the 4 chapels of the Byzantine period that have been preserved in Paros.

    Looking at the Past of Greece through the Eyes of Greeks Maria G. Zachariou 1 Table of Contents Introduction 00 Section I: Archaeology in Greece in the 19th Century 00 Section II: Archaeology in Greece in the 20th Century 00 Section III: Archaeology in Greece in the Early 21st Century 00 Conclusion: How the Economic Crisis in Greece is Affecting Archaeology Appendix: Events, Resources, Dates, and People 00 2 Introduction The history of archaeology in Greece as it has been conducted by the Greeks themselves is too major an undertaking to be presented thoroughly within the limits of the current paper.1 Nonetheless, an effort has been made to outline the course of archaeology in Greece from the 19th century to the present day with particular attention to the native Greek contribution. The presentation of the historical facts and personalities that played a leading and vital role in the formation of the archaeological affairs in Greece is realized in three sections: archaeology in Greece during the 19th, the 20th, and the 21st centuries. Crucial historical events, remarkable people, such as politicians and scholars, institutions and societies, are introduced in chronological order, with the hope that the reader will acquire a coherent idea of the evolution of archaeology in Greece from the time of its genesis in the 19th century to the present. References to these few people and events do not suggest by any means that there were not others. The personal decisions and scientific work of native Greek archaeologists past and present has contributed significantly to the same goal: the development of archaeology in Greece.

  • Athens and the Persian Wars
    TITLE PAGE A BRIEF HISTORY OF ANCIENT GREECE Politics, Society, and Culture Sarah B. Pomeroy Stanley M. Burstein Hunter College and California State University, the City University of New York Los Angeles Graduate Center Walter Donlan Jennifer Tolbert Roberts University of City College and California, Irvine the City University of New York Graduate Center New York • Oxford OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS 2004 5 THE GROWTH OF ATHENS AND THE PERSIAN WARS During the Archaic period, numerous Greek city-states struggled with a vari- ety of problems—factional quarrels between aristocratic families, tension be- tween aristocrats and the people, and tyranny. Sparta found a unique solution to the Archaic crisis and so did Athens. By 500 BC Athens’ problems had been largely resolved. The last tyrant had been expelled, Athens had a democratic government, and aristocratic stasis was largely confined to competing for office and persuading the assembly. Because of their relative harmony, wealth, and great numbers, the Athenians had become the second most powerful Greek polis, they were poised to play a major role in the great war that was about to begin. For while the Greek city-states were evolving, the Persian Empire was growing into an ambitious power that would threaten to engulf the Hellenic world. A strong Athens would be vital to the defense of Greece against invasions by the Persian kings Darius I and Xerxes. ATHENS FROM THE BRONZE AGE TO THE EARLY ARCHAIC AGE Literary evidence and physical remains show that during the Late Bronze Age Athens was the largest and most important settlement on the Attic peninsula and a major Mycenaean palace-center that exercised a loose control over the other fortified palace-centers in the region.
