Ancient Greece marks the beginning of Western culture; the dominant cultural form in the modern world which has come to play an influential role on more cultures worldwide than any other culture. For many centuries it was an essentially European culture, but it has now mostly become an American culture. Shown above is a 1872 snapshot of the Partenon located in Athens, Greece. It has been restored since.
Have the Elgin Marbles been repatriated to Greece? Or have the friezes been rebuilt?
Didn’t remark the fabulous photographs of archaeological sites in this weekend’s De Morgen Magazine?!
Suburban,
Sorry, I do no know.
Sensotheque,
Nope, what did I miss?
