To be asked to carry the immense symbolic weight of the classical tradition, while being a modern, western European nation-state? To be subjected to constant surveillance on whether you have performed your duties as a worthy steward of the material classical past, and to various tests on whether you are a true descendant of Pericles or a ‘bastardized’ mix of Slavic and Ottoman cultures? To have to become the object of the patronizing epithet ‘Philhellenism’, as if you were a rare species in need of protection? To be the only country in the world that needs the prefix ‘modern’ in front of its name? To have to deal with both Orientalism, and its local and peculiar variant, Balkanism (Todorova 1997)? Welcome to Greece! 02-Boys-Stones-c02 9780199286140–Boys (Typeset by SPi, Chennai) 20 of 31 April 6, 2009 10:30 20 yannis hamilakis If the other chapters in this section deal with the Hellenism in the western sense, in this chapter I will attempt to briefly highlight an alternative Hellenism, indigenous Hellenism (in its various forms) as performed by intellectuals and state bureaucrats, politicians and citizens, poets and ordinary people, in Greece since the nineteenth century. In other words, I will deal with the reception, management, and recasting of the classical heritage by those people who, as the Nobel laureate poet Giorgos Seferis put it in Mythistorima, ‘woke up with this marble head in [their] hands’,a marble head that exhausts their elbows but which they do not know where to put down (Keeley and Sherrard 1981: 88). The evocation of the marble head is not accidental: my brief survey will place particular emphasis on the materiality of classical antiquity, its agency, and its embodied engagement with humans, through its physical and sensory qualities. For people living in the southern end of the Balkan peninsula, classical antiquity was never purely an abstract entity, a concept that scholars and western travellers would evoke in their writings and travelogues. For them, it always was a material and physical presence, a visible and touchable reality, in the shape of ruined build- ings, scattered objects, shattered fragments of pottery and stone; and in some cases, and more poignantly, in the shape of human bodies, either skeletons emerging out of the ground while ploughing the fields, or men and women made of marble or bronze, most naked, some with their heads or limbs missing, some complete, some so real and alive that you ‘could see their veins’, as Makrygiannis, the enigmatic nineteenth-century author and fighter of the Greek War of Independence put it (Vlahogiannis 1947: 63). For them, these were the feats of people who were there before them, different from themselves, other people, not their ancestors, but still admirable in their abilities to construct large and elaborate buildings and works of immense beauty (Hamilakis 2003). In folk stories from the nineteenth century, tales that reflect local attitudes before the ideas of nationhood became widespread, these people were the Hellenes, and their time was the ‘time of the Hellenes’, o Kairos ton Ellinon (Kakridis 1989). But in other stories, it becomes clear that this time is not conceived of in terms of a linear chronological sequence, that is as time past, linked genealogically to their own time. Some of these Hellenes are still alive, and they often engage with contemporary people in contestations of physical strength. Times past and times present, therefore, seemed to coexist in the folk imagination, prior to the establishment of western modernist temporality and its chronomet- ric devices. Moreover, in some of the descriptions of Hellenes in these stories, it becomes clear that the marble statues themselves are the Hellenes, not just the feats of past people. The statues had become entities with animate properties, human beings that even without heads could walk, and even without eyes (when marble statues were missing their painted eyes) could see. These stories, but also many other stories and practices involving antiquities (some recorded by travellers), such as those that attribute emotive reactions to ancient, especially anthropomorphic objects, and the practice of reusing ancient architectural parts and objects such 02-Boys-Stones-c02 9780199286140–Boys (Typeset by SPi, Chennai) 21 of 31 April 6, 2009 10:30 indigenous hellenisms/indigenous modernities 21 as reliefs and inscriptions in contemporary buildings, be it churches or houses (the tradition of spolia), often in places of prominence, such as the outer walls of churches or above the entrances of houses, speak of an intimate relation with the material past (Papalexandrou 2003). This is an alternative indigenous archaeology, involving practices of recovery, care, exhibition (in houses and churches and other places of worship, not museums), interpretation; an archaeology that also included ‘destruction’ (when using marbles as raw material to produce lime, for example), or rather reincorporation into the web of daily life; an archaeology based on a non- western conception of temporality and materiality, although the increasing number of western travellers to Greece who were seeking antiquities, especially in the eight- eenth and nineteenth centuries, and the impact of western Hellenism through the work of local intellectuals, would have, no doubt, influenced and shaped this native archaeology. Yet, things were destined to change, as Greece was incorporated into the western European world-system. The nation-state of Greece was founded at the intersection of a number of historical contingencies. Since the mid-fifteenth century ce,the area we now call Greece was under the Ottoman Empire, composed of many ethnic and religious groups which were organized on the basis of the millet: the system whereby the basic form of identification was religion, not language, and certainly not any national or even ethnic self-identification. The Greek language, however, enjoyed a privileged position, partly because it was the language of the Bible, partly because it was the lingua franca for many administrators, but also because it was the language of the new social class which emerged in south-eastern Europe from the seventeenth century and whose economic base was trade and seafaring, rather than the land. In the Babel of languages, religions, and ethnic groups of the Balkans at the time, Greek provided a convenient medium of communication for the physically mobile and upward moving new social classes (Stoianovich 1960; Roudometof 1998). Christian Orthodox people belonged to the millet-i Rum,and progressively, Greek became the dominant means of communication amongst the members of the millet, who were called by others and were calling themselves Romioi. Interestingly, the term ‘Hellene’ still signified for most people the pagan classical tradition, and it was a term that especially the clergy was keen to eliminate. Certain evocations of the term ‘Hellene’ by Byzantine scholars (e.g. in the twelfth century) contained some elements of contemporary ethnic identification, but it never acquired widespread currency, it ‘never really “caught” on’ (Beaton 2007: 93). The Hellenes were destined to become ancestors in the decades prior to the Greek War of Independence, through the concentrated effort of the Greek-speaking merchants and scholars who were educated in the West or were involved in trade and financial transactions with western countries, and of western Hellenists and travellers, combined with the political desires of European powers to expand their zone of influence into the territories of the Ottoman Empire. The Greek speak- ing merchant-intellectuals (and the roles were often combined, as for example 02-Boys-Stones-c02 9780199286140–Boys (Typeset by SPi, Chennai) 22 of 31 April 6, 2009 10:30 22 yannis hamilakis in Adamandios Koraïs, the most prominent intellectual of what would come to be called the Greek Enlightenment: Dimaras 1977;Jeffreys 1985;Clogg2003) came into contact with western Hellenism and started identifying themselves as Hellenes, the direct descendants of ancient Greeks, so admired by the western intellectual and political elites. These Greeks imported into the area of present- day Greece, together with trade goods and financial capital, the symbolic capi- tal of Hellenism, and dreamed of the new imagined community of the Hellenic Nation as the resurrected Hellas of classical times. In translating ancient Greek authors, in naming their merchant ships with ancient Greek names, in training teachers who would teach pupils their true destiny, and in baptizing children with ancient Greek names (Politis 1993), they forged a future for the area: a future of a national state, a community based on ethnic self-identification and on ancestral glory, a homogenized national community, in place of the multi-ethnic and multilingual communities structured around religious faith. The fighters of the War of Independence now started

    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.

  • Women and Power in the Court of Philip II
    Women and power in the court of Philip II Christiana Chantavaridou SCHOOL OF HUMANITIES A thesis submitted for the degree of Master of Arts (MA) in Classical Archaeology and Ancient History of Macedonia January 2020 Thessaloniki – Greece Student Name: Christiana Chantavaridou SID: 2204170003 Supervisor: Prof. I.K. Xydopoulos I hereby declare that the work submitted is mine and that where I have made use of another’s work, I have attributed the source(s) according to the Regulations set in the Student’s Handbook. Christiana Chantavaridou January 2020 Thessaloniki - Greece 2 Abstract This dissertation was written as part of the MA in Classical Archaeology and Ancient History of Macedonia aiming to enlighten the reasons for Philip II’s marital policy and provide information in relation to royal Macedonian women in his court. Philip II was the third out of the three sons of Amyntas III of the Argead dynasty, who ruled the kingdom of Macedonia from the backwater of the Hellenic world. Prior to his reign the kingdom was weak, unstable, possessing an impotent army that could not deal with their many aggressive enemies. His ascendance to the throne, his innovations during his reign and his multiple marriages were crucial for the transformation and expansion of Macedonia. Early in his reign he took five wives, part of his marriage policy to form alliances, aiming also to produce quickly male heirs to the throne. Two more weddings followed, the last one with a Macedonian noble probably of Argive descent that took place a little time before his assassination in 336 BC.

  • Who Is Buried in Philip's Tomb?
    HIST229x “Was Alexander Great?” Who is buried in Philip’s tomb? A Thought Exercise Before we follow Alexander across the Hellespont into Asia in search of the Persian King Darius, it is important to recount what happened in Macedon just after Philip’s death. This review is important because the events which followed the shocking murder of Philip II of Macedon in the theatre of Aegae bear directly on the answer to one of the most controversial archaeological questions of the 20th century: namely, who is buried in the astonishing tomb discovered by the Greek archaeologist Manolis Andronikos in Vergina (ancient Aegae) Macedon in November of 1977?1 The variety and beauty of the finely wrought armor, the small ivory portrait heads, and the exquisite gold crowns which Andronikos found in the tomb in 1977 brought to his mind the splendid gold masks and weapons discovered by the famous German archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann in the shaft graves of Mycenae almost one hundred years before. Indeed, Andronikos’ altogether sensational finds aroused great interest both among archaeologists and the general public.2 Above all however, the two small funerary boxes made of gold (larnakes), which Andronikos discovered in the main chamber and ante-chamber of the tomb in Vergina captured the imaginations of both professional and amateur archaeologists. Each of the boxes had the characteristic radiate star of the Macedonian royal house carved on its top. Inside the smaller gold box were the bones of a young woman. The larger larnax held the bones of a man who had died when he was perhaps in his mid-forties.

We also see the royal golden wreath in this image. Formerly displayed at Thessaloniki's Archaeological Museum, the items are now maintained at the underground museum at Vergina (in northern Greece). Before Pella became the royal capital, the ancient town of Aegae (Aigai) had served that purpose. Since at least 1850, scholars believed the tranquil hills of nearby Vergina contained the graves or tombs (you need Real Player for this video link) of Macedonian royalty. In 1977, the late Greek archeologist, Manolis Andronikos, working in Vergina (also spelled Verghina) discovered several tombs. Two had never been plundered. One of those (believed, at the time, to be Philip's) contained a gold casket (called a larnax) with a royal Macedonian star burst on its cover. Inside the casket were cremated remains. Although there is scholarly disagreement, Andronikos (who published a book with numerous pictures of his findings) and his colleagues believed those cremated remains were of Alexander's father, Philip II.

  • Possible Alternative Relationships of Religion, Nationalism, and Archaeology
    discussion article Yanms Hamilakis and Eleana Yaloun SaCral ISing the Cults of archaeology in modern Greece' Abstract The paper discusses the religious undertones classical Greek heritage is vested with in Greece. Drawing on the argument that nationalism and religion need to be seen as similar cultural systems, we show that classical antiquities have become powerful emotive icons for performances of national memory in the process ot imagining the topos of the Hellenic nation. This process is open to all social actors and not simply to State bureaucrats and intellectuals. We offer an explanation of this phenomenon by examining the position of antiquity in the construction of the imagined community of the Hellenic nation, as well as the ways by which Orthodoxy and classical antiquity became enmeshed in the formation of Hellenic national identity.We final- ly explore some of the implications that this phenomenon has for archaeology as a discipline and as social practice. Keywords archaeology; modern Greece; nationalism; religion Introduction Recently we have experienced the dusk of the era of political innocence in archaeology. More and more people realise that we can no longer ignore the political implications of archaeological work. We cannot underestimate archaeologists' significant contribution to the social construction of the past and its prominent role in the negotiation of identity roles and power relations in modern societies. While the literature on politics and archaeology is becoming more and more voluminous, the problematisation of the subject is still under- developed. Many archaeologists still adopt an objectifying position and a positivist approach which views the politics of archaeology and the past simply in terms of abuse of the empir- ical record and distortion of'objective' past reality.
