    A DIACHRONIC EXAMINATION OF THE ERECHTHEION AND ITS RECEPTION Alexandra L. Lesk, B.A., M.St. (Oxon.), M.A. Presented to McMicken College of Arts and Sciences and the Department of Classics of the University of Cincinnati in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2004 Committee: C. Brian Rose (Chair) Jack L. Davis Kathleen M. Lynch J. James Coulton Abstract iii ABSTRACT “A Diachronic Examination of the Erechtheion and Its Reception” examines the social life of the Ionic temple on the Athenian Akropolis, which was built in the late 5th century B.C. to house Athens’ most sacred cults and relics. Using a contextualized diachronic approach, this study examines both the changes to the Erechtheion between its construction and the middle of the 19th century A.D., as well as the impact the temple had on the architecture and art of these successive periods. This approach allows the evidence to shed light on new areas of interest such as the Post-Antique phases of the building, in addition to affording a better understanding of problems that have plagued the study of the Erechtheion during the past two centuries. This study begins with a re-examination of all the pertinent archaeological, epigraphical, and literary evidence, and proposes a wholly new reconstruction of how the Erechtheion worked physically and ritually in ancient times. After accounting for the immediate influence of the Erechtheion on subsequent buildings of the Ionic order, an argument for a Hellenistic rather than Augustan date for the major repairs to the temple is presented.

The breakthrough to the non-Jewish world with the Gos- pel had largely started at Antioch. And now this group of believers would launch a movement toward Gentiles that would revolutionize Christianity. This event was the beginning of the first missionary journey of Paul and Barnabas.

A system or order defined the ideal proportions for all the components of the temples according to mathematical ratios – based on the diameter of the columns. What is an order? An order includes the total assemblage of parts consisting of the column and its appropriate entablature which is based on the diameter of the column. Temple of Hera II (Poseidon) 450 BCE The column is vertical and supports the structure. Its diameter sets the proportion of the other parts.

  • Athens After the Liberation Planningthe New Cityand Exploringthe Old*
    ATHENS AFTER THE LIBERATION PLANNINGTHE NEW CITYAND EXPLORINGTHE OLD* (PLATES80-86) A THENS on the eve of the Greek Revolution of 1821 displayeda three-dimensional record of the city's historical development; it was also a remarkablypicturesque place. Monuments of antiquity and of the Roman period, elegant Byzantine churches, remains of the Frankish conquest, mosques with tall minarets, and secular buildings were still preserved almost intact, while the houses, all built of stone, with their ever present courtyardsand verdant gardens, completed the picture. The wall of Haseki, built in 1778, surroundedthe city, and the Acropolis, "the Castle", with its successive fortificationsconstituted an invulnerable fortress. On its summit an entire quarter for the Turkish garrisonand their families had been created, and a small mosque had been constructedwithin the Parthenon after its destruction by Morosini in 1687 (Fig. 1, Pls. 80, 81). The Athenians, with the help of the villagers of Attica, revolted against the Turks on the 25th of April 1821, and on the 10th of June 1822 they gained control of the Acropolis. During this siege the first destruction of Athens and its monuments oc- curred. In the four subsequent years, however, when the Athenians ruled their own city, they were able to display notable cultural achievements. At that time they also took care of their antiquities:on the initiative of the Philomousos Society, founded in 1813, they collected various antiquities, decided to found a temporary museum and simultaneously brought to light many monuments by removing the buildings which kept them from view. In the same period, Kyriakos Pittakis, the first Greek archaeologist, having been appointed supervisor of the water supply, discovered at the northeast corner of the Acropolis, below the cliffs, the famous Klepsydra spring mentioned by Pausanias (X.28.4).It was the first certain identificationof an ancient monument at a time when students of Athenian topography were trying unsuccessfully to identify the various monuments.

  • Silver in Greece
    Silver Production in City/State of Ancient Athens Maxwell K. Boots, B.Sc. (Hon), PhD. Introduction. Much of what follows was sourced from the internet, however I remain responsible for the conclusions. During earlier research into the origins of silver and gold smithing, I came across many references about the first known “owl” coins that were minted in Greece from silver, commencing c580 BCE. Although these were not the first coins, they rekindled an interest in the silver history of Greece, especially about the geology of the mines in south- eastern Greece. The first known coins were made by the Lydians c700BCE (modern day-Western Turkey) using naturally occurring Electrum. Over 50 years ago I had sat through a lecture on the economic geology and processing of silver ores from the Laurion area of present day Greece, which is centered about 60km to the southeast of Athens. The Greeks appear to have the first real evidence of mining and processing on an intensive scale from their silver mines at Laurion which is an eastern sea port situated on a bay overlooking the island of Makronisos (in ancient times: Helena). The town is also known as Lavrio, Laureion or Laurium. Other small villages and towns of this area include Thoricus, Kamareza, Maronsa and Sounian. History of the mines. Although the start of silver mining in the Laurion area is not accurately known, it was probably commenced before the 3rd millennium BCE. This date has been ascertained because lead found in Egypt and dated to that time has been found to have the same isotope ratios, thus it originated from the Laurion area.

  • Time and Religion in Hellenistic Athens: an Interpretation of the Little Metropolis Frieze
    Time and Religion in Hellenistic Athens: An Interpretation of the Little Metropolis Frieze. Monica Haysom School of History, Classics and Archaeology Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Newcastle University, November 2015. ABSTRACT Two stones that form a part of the spolia on the Little Metropolis church (Aghios Eleutherios) in central Athens consist of a frieze depicting a calendar year. The thesis begins with a Preface that discusses the theoretical approaches used. An Introduction follows which, for reference, presents the 41 images on the frieze using the 1932 interpretation of Ludwig Deubner. After evaluating previous studies in Chapter 1, the thesis then presents an exploration of the cultural aspects of time in ancient Greece (Chapter 2). A new analysis of the frieze, based on ancient astronomy, dates the frieze to the late Hellenistic period (Chapter 3); a broad study of Hellenistic calendars identifies it as Macedonian (Chapter 4), and suggests its original location and sponsor (Chapter 5). The thesis presents an interpretation of the frieze that brings the conclusions of these chapters together, developing an argument that includes the art, religion and philosophy of Athenian society contemporary with the construction of the frieze. Given the date, the Macedonian connection and the link with an educational establishment, the final Chapter 6 presents an interpretation based not on the addition of individual images but on the frieze subject matter as a whole. This chapter shows that understanding the frieze is dependent on a number of aspects of the world of artistic connoisseurship in an elite, educated audience of the late Hellenistic period.

  • The Influence of Wealth in Imperial Rome
    THE INFLUENCE OF WEALTH IN IMPERIAL ROME BY WILLIAM STEARNS DAVIS PROFESSOR OF ANCIENT HISTORY UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA THE MACMILLAN COMPANY 1910 All rights reserved COPTKIGHT, 1910, By the MACMILLAlir COMPAITT. Set up and electrotyped. Published October, igio. Berwick & Smith Co., Norwood, Mass., U.S.A. Irb PEEFACE This book attempts to consider various phases in the economic and social life of Ancient Rome; such as has not been treated, except incidentally, in any English work, nor in any French or German work from precisely the same standpoint ; a fact which gives justification for the present essay. The purpose is to consider the influence of money and of the commercial spirit throughout the period of Eoman greatness. Sometimes a liberal interpretation has been given to the term "Money Power," and certain subjects have been discussed not at first sight closely connected with public finance or private industry and commerce. Tet the idea that the Romans owed much, both of their greatness and of their ultimate failure, to the supreme estimate they put upon wealth and its concomitants has never been lost from view. This essay makes no claim to exhaustive or original learning. The evidence of the ancient authors, supple- mented by much testimony from the great Corpus In- scriptionum Latinarum, is however carefully used, and from what is possibly a somewhat new point of departure. Tet modern investigators on one point or another have put the author under a great debt—Friedlaender, Grupp, Mommsen, Marquardt, Voigt, Schiller, Seeck, Hir|h- feld, Schanz, Bloch, Boissier, Duruy, Arnold, Dill and many more, as well as the able contributors to Smith's Dictionary of Classical Antiquities, and to the Pauly- vi PKEPACB Wissowa Real-Encyklopaedie der classischen Alterthums- wissenschaft} Since this book does not claim to be a critical compendium for the advanced scholar, it has not seemed wise to encumber the pages with foot-note references and citations of the classical and modern authorities.
