It might well be said that no city has contributed more to human civilization than Athens, the city where Socrates Plato, Aeschylus, Sophicles, Euripides, Pericles, and many other notable individuals were born. From comedy and tragedy, to philosophy and democracy, ancient Athens generated an intellectual light that still reaches us today. In these pages you will not only ready story of Athens, but also watch as the Temple of Zeus is built; visit the Agora, the city's political centre and market-place, where trade and philosophy of discussions take place side by side; enter a family home and visit the Acropolis, originally the entire fortified city. The city at war, religion and the gods, the law counts, the theater, festivals, and a day in the life of a slave, also are explored. Informative text, illustrations, photographs, an overview section on the Greek heritage and its legacy, a timeline, a glossary and a comprehensive index make this an excellent book for the curious reader and budding young historian.
