Athenians and Eleusinians in the West Pediment of the Parthenon
ATHENIANS AND ELEUSINIANS IN THE WEST PEDIMENT OF THE PARTHENON (PLATE 95) T HE IDENTIFICATION of the figuresin the west pedimentof the Parthenonhas long been problematic.I The evidencereadily enables us to reconstructthe composition of the pedimentand to identify its central figures.The subsidiaryfigures, however, are rath- er more difficult to interpret. I propose that those on the left side of the pediment may be identifiedas membersof the Athenian royal family, associatedwith the goddessAthena, and those on the right as membersof the Eleusinian royal family, associatedwith the god Posei- don. This alignment reflects the strife of the two gods on a heroic level, by referringto the legendary war between Athens and Eleusis. The recognition of the disjunctionbetween Athenians and Eleusinians and of parallelism and contrastbetween individualsand groups of figures on the pedimentpermits the identificationof each figure. The referenceto Eleusis in the pediment,moreover, indicates the importanceof that city and its majorcult, the Eleu- sinian Mysteries, to the Athenians. The referencereflects the developmentand exploitation of Athenian control of the Mysteries during the Archaic and Classical periods. This new proposalfor the identificationof the subsidiaryfigures of the west pedimentthus has critical I This article has its origins in a paper I wrote in a graduateseminar directedby ProfessorJohn Pollini at The Johns Hopkins University in 1979. I returned to this paper to revise and expand its ideas during 1986/1987, when I held the Jacob Hirsch Fellowship at the American School of Classical Studies at Athens. In the summer of 1988, I was given a grant by the Committeeon Research of Tulane University to conduct furtherresearch for the article. -

Interpretive Guide
2004: AN OLYMPIC ODYSSEY Interpretive Guide For those of you who are familiar with Greek mythology, you’ll notice as you read 2004 that we’ve taken certain liberties with the stories. Therefore, in order to provide a basis of compari- son, and more fully explain our point of view, we’ve written this Guide. It includes many of the figures and places occurring in the novel, and one or more versions of what is commonly accepted as the “Classical” interpretation. (See Hesiod, Homer) However, we believe the origin of many of these myths dates back to a much earlier era, to a time well before Zeus ruled the wide Heavens. Though a fortress of obfuscation was constructed in the path long ago, with a simple change of perspective, we saw the terrifying hell-like dungeon of the Minotaur’s maze transform back into the dancing floor it once was. By following Ariadne’s Thread, which has been woven through many of the tales, we were able to navigate the dim, frightening corridors of warrior hero cosmology back through time – all the way to the Golden Age. (See Ariadne, Labyrinth) The stories about humanity once living in peace and prosper- ity can now be shown to have their roots in the actual lives of our Neolithic ancestors. Through the remarkable scholarship of two individuals in particular, Drs. Marija Gimbutas and Riane Eisler, Visit our Website at http://olympicodyssey.com abundant physical, cultural, historical and literary evidence has been put forth to support the proposition that humans did in fact once live in the “Garden of Eden.” Gimbutas, a renowned linguist and archeologist who ana- lyzed data from countless excavations throughout Europe, and conducted five major digs of her own, documented the existence and ultimate downfall of what she called the Civilization of Old Europe. -

EXPERT-LED PETER SOMMER ARCHAEOLOGICAL & CULTURAL TRAVELS TOURS & GULET CRUISES 2021 PB Peter Sommer Travels Peter Sommer Travels 1 WELCOME WHY TRAVEL WITH US? TO PETER SOMMER TR AVELS Writing this in autumn 2020, it is hard to know quite where to begin. I usually review the season just gone, the new tours that we ran, the preparatory recces we made, the new tours we are unveiling for the next year, the feedback we have received and our exciting plans for the future. However, as you well know, this year has been unlike any other in our collective memory. Our exciting plans for 2020 were thrown into disarray, just like many of yours. We were so disappointed that so many of you were unable to travel with us in 2020. Our greatest pleasure is to share the destinations we have grown to love so deeply with you our wonderful guests. I had the pleasure and privilege of speaking with many of you personally during the 2020 season. I was warmed and touched by your support, your understanding, your patience, and your generosity. All of us here at PST are extremely grateful and heartened by your enthusiasm and eagerness to travel with us when it becomes possible. PST is a small, flexible, and dynamic company. We have weathered countless downturns during the many years we have been operating. Elin, my wife, and I have always reinvested in the business with long term goals and are very used to surviving all manner of curve balls, although COVID-19 is certainly the biggest we have yet faced. -

Coastal Change and Archaeological Settings in Elis John C
Coastal Change and Archaeological Settings in Elis John C. Kraft, George Robert Rapp, John A. Gifford, S. E. Aschenbrenner Hesperia, Volume 74, Number 1, January-March 2005, pp. 1-39 (Article) Published by American School of Classical Studies at Athens For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/182142 No institutional affiliation (15 Jul 2018 21:22 GMT) hesperia 74 (2005) Coastal Change and Pages 1–39 Archaeological Settings in Elis ABSTRACT Since the mid-Holocene epoch, sediments from the Alpheios River in Elis, in the western Peloponnese, have been entrained in littoral currents and depos- ited to form barriers, coastal lagoons, and peripheral marshes. Three major surges of sediment formed a series of barrier-island chains. The sites of Kleidhi (ancient Arene), along a former strategic pass by the sea, and Epitalion (Ho- meric Thryon), built on a headland at the mouth of the Alpheios River, now lie 1 and 5 km inland, respectively, and other ancient sites have been similarly affected. Diversion of the Peneus River has led to cycles of delta progradation and retrogradation that have both buried and eroded archaeological sites. Coastal changes continue in Elis today, resulting in areas of both erosion and deposition. INTRODUCTION Three great sandy strandlines extend for more than 100 km along the coast of Elis in the western Peloponnese, Kiparissia to Katakolon, to Chle- moutsi, to Araxos (Fig. 1). Fed by sediments eroding from the uplands of Elis via the deltas of the Peneus, Alpheios, and Nedon rivers and numer- ous smaller streams, littoral processes have created a sequence of lagoons, marshes, barrier accretion plains, coastal dune fields, swamps, and deltas.
