    Timeline & Games Proposal 2013 – 2016 in Greece In cooperation with Prof. Dr. Maria TZANI, Vice-President of the International Delphic Council (IDC- Berlin) for discussions with the respective Greek Ministers as well with the Greek Head of State. General Introduction Let’s meet in Greece It is the aim of the International Delphic Council to enlarge the worldwide acknowledgement of the Delphic Games of the Modern Era by restructuring the IDC in that way, that new countries have the opportunity to become a cultural hub within a region of the worldwide Delphic Games and the Delphic Movement as a whole. Summarizing the experience of the past 18 years it is of utmost importance to invite committed coun- tries protecting and strengthen (political, economical, diplomatically etc) the International Delphic Council and to support democratic development with its cultural, transparent structures. The turn around should be achieved through - moving the worldwide Delphic Head office from Germany towards Greece - establishing worldwide strong Delphic Councils at national level - the establishment of regional / continental IDC Branches, i.e. Europe, Asia, Africa, North America, South America, etc. to select appropriate and committed nations willing to set benchmarks in protecting the Delphic Games for the arts as equivalent to the Olympic Games for sports. Plans in Greece It is a target of the IDC that Greece should have a key function in the near future and that two destina- tions should be appointed in Greece for the IDC: - a larger centre in / close to Athens (reconstruction/revival of a site) - a newly constructed worldwide Delphic Centre in Delphi, at ancient times viewed as “navel of the world”, including a Temple of Fame, congress and education facilities constructed and out- lined in highest artistic architecture and art works reflecting its position as Cultural Crossroad of World Culture.

  • Rock Falls in Delphi Archaeological Site, in Greece
    Rockfalls occurred in the archaeological site of Delphi, Greece B. Christaras Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, School of Geology, Lab. of Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology, e-mail: [email protected] K. Vouvalidis Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, School of Geology, Dept. of Physical & Environmental Geography, e-mail: [email protected] M. - F. Papakonstantinou Ministry of Culture, Chief Archaeologist of I’ Ephorate of Prehistoric and Classical Antiquities, Delphi, e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT: In the present investigation, the safety of the northern slope of Delphi’s archaeological site in Greece was investigated against rockfalls. The area consists of limestone lying over flysch. Three possible rockfall rebound tracks, passing through the ancient stadium, and the theatre, were studied for different rock dimensions and tracks resulting that the more dangerous and difficult in retention rockfall track is that which crosses the stadium. The use of barriers was investigated accepting, finally, that a 2.5m-high metallic barrier could be installed along the northern steep slope for the protection of the archaeological site. KEY WORDS: ROCKFALLS, DELPHI, SLOP STABILITY, RESTRAINING BARRIERES 1. INTRODUCTION In the middle of September 2009, prolonged rainfall activated rockfalls from the upper sections of the archaeological site’s northern slope and fall downslope, out of the enclosure wall of the Sanctuary of Apollo, north of the Portico of Attalus. Rockfalls also occur in the stadium from 2003 onwards (Figure 1). The slope, consisting of limestone, is steep and heavily broken as a result of the existing tectonics. The rockfalls created dangerous conditions in the archaeological site regarding the safety of tourists, the staff of the ephorate and the protection of the monuments.

Its contribution to the historiography of the period stems from the fact that it constitutes the first academic study of the third largest resistance organisation in Greece, the 5/42 regiment of evzones. The study of this national resistance organisation can thus extend our knowledge of the Greek resistance effort, the political relations between the main resistance groups, the conditions that led to the civil war and the domestic relevance of British policies.

  • The Phokikon and the Hero Archegetes (Plate54)
    THE PHOKIKON AND THE HERO ARCHEGETES (PLATE54) A SHORT DISTANCE WEST of the Boiotian town of Chaironeia the Sacred Way I Lcrossed the border into Phokis. The road went past Panopeus and on toward Daulis before turning south toward the Schiste Odos and, eventually, Delphi (Fig. 1). To reach the famous crossroads where Oidipos slew his father, the Sacred Way first had to pass through the valley of the Platanias River. In this valley, on the left side of the road, was the federal meeting place of the Phokians, the Phokikon.1 This is one of the few civic buildings from antiquity whose internal layout is described by an eyewitness.2 Pausanias says, Withrespect to size the buildingis a largeone, and withinit thereare columnsstanding along its length; steps ascend from the columnsto each wall, and on these steps the delegatesof the Phokianssit. At the far end there are neithercolumns nor steps, but a statuegroup of Zeus, Athena, and Hera; the statueof Zeus is enthroned,flanked by the goddesses,with the statueof Athenastanding on the left (1O.5.2).3 Frazersuggested that the interior of the building resembledthe Thersilion at Megalopolis.4 The location of a federal assembly hall so close to the border with Boiotia, an often hostile neighbor, seems puzzling, but given the shape of the entire territory of Phokis, the position of the Phokikonmakes sense (Fig. 2). As Philippson noted, "Die antike Landschaft Phokis ist nicht nattirlichbegrenzt und kein geographisch einheitliches Gebiet."5 Ancient Phokis was dominated by Mount Parnassos, and the Phokians inhabited two distinct 1 An earlier draft of this paper was delivered at the 92nd Annual Meeting of the Archaeological Institute of America (San Francisco 1990; abstract, AJA 1991, pp.

  • The Palaeogeographic Distribution of Stromatolites in the Parnassus Zone, Central Greece, During the Early to Middle Paleocene Ν
    Δελτίο της Ελληνικής Γεωλογικής Εταιρίας, Τομ. XXXIV/2, 779-783, 2001 Bulletin of the Geological Society of Greece, Vol. XXXIV/2, 779-783, 2001 Πρακτικά 9ου Διεθνούς Συνεδρίου, Αθήνα, Σεπτέμβριος 2001 Proceedings of the 9th International Congress, Athens, September 2001 THE PALAEOGEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION OF STROMATOLITES IN THE PARNASSUS ZONE, CENTRAL GREECE, DURING THE EARLY TO MIDDLE PALEOCENE Ν. SOLAKIUS1 AND M. KATl' ABSTRACT The stromatolites recorded in the Parnassus Zone, central Greece, were developed in shallow waters (tidal flat conditions) that prevailed in the central areas of the zone during the early to middle Paleocene. In the margins, deeper water prevailed during this interval which enabled the deposition of pelagic limestones. The wide geographic distribution of the stromatolites in the zone probably depended on the lack of organisms feed­ ing on them, climatic factors, salinity of coastal waters and sediment supply. They further acted as post mass- extinction disaster forms inhabiting the shallow water areas after the extinction of the rudists at the end of the Cretaceous. KEY WORDS: Parnassus zone, Paleocene, stromatolites 1. INTRODUCTION It has previously been shown that the stromatolites in the Parnassus Zone, Central Greece (Fig. 1), devel­ oped during the early to middle Paleocene above phosphatic hardground beds formed on the top of the Creta­ ceous carbonate substrate (Kalpakis, 1979; Solakius et al., 1989; Solakius, 1994; Pomomi-Papaioannou, 1994). These hardgrounds have resulted from breaks in deposition during the late Maastrichtian to earliest Paleocene in a seafloor temporarily emerged (Pomoni-Papaioannou, 1994; Solakius, 1994). Both the stromatolites and the underlying hardground bed have been mineralized by iron-oxides and phosphates and are often treated together as a unit termed the hardground-stromatolitic unit (Gregou & Solakius, 1997).

    Parnassus, Delphi, and the Thyiades McInerney, Jeremy Greek, Roman and Byzantine Studies; Fall 1997; 38, 3; ProQuest pg. 263 Parnassus, Delphi, and the Thyiades Jeremy McInerney AN INTERNATIONAL SANCTUARY, Delphi helped bring a­ bout the transition within the emerging poleis of the ~ Archaic period to what Fran~ois de Polignac has called a "more finished, <adult' stage of society and institutions. "1 Delphi's business was international in scope: the sanctuary was involved in colonization, arbitration, and panhellenism.2 Yet one important aspect of Delphi's emergence as a panhellenic sanc­ tuary rarely studied is the impact of this extraordinary status on the community of Delphi and its surrounding region. In this paper I propose that, as the sanctuary of Delphi came to repre­ sent order, conciliation, and mediation to the Greeks, the local topography of the region was made to reflect these same themes. Delphi and Mt Parnassus became, through myth and ritual, a landscape in which tensions between wildness and civilization-a polarity at the heart of the culture of the polis­ could be narrated, enacted, and organized. Delphi and Parnas­ sus stood for the polarities from which the polis was construc­ ted. On the one side was Delphi, representing the triumph of order over chaos, as expressed in the myth of the sanctuary's foundation, when Apollo destroys Pytho and brings culture to the original inhabitants of Parnassus (Strab. 9.3.12). On the other side was Mt Parnassus, the wilderness tamed by Apollo. These 1 F. de Polignac, UMediation, Competition, and Sovereignty: The Evolution of Rural Sanctuaries in Geometric Greece,» in S.
