Abstract:
Athens, the capital of Greece, is notable for its distinctive environment. Numerous archaeological and historical monuments contribute to the city’s cultural wealth. These cultural monuments should include geological monuments, which are part of Athens’ natural heritage. The Acropolis of Athens is one of the world’s most recognizable and admired monuments, renowned for its archaeological, historical, and touristic significance. The Acropolis Rock is also a spectacular geological heritage monument. This article is about the Acropolis monuments, which are of great geological interest in addition

This paper presents the project “Development of Geographic Information Systems at the Acropolis of Athens”, financed by the European Union and the Government of Greece. The Acropolis of Athens is one of the major archaeological sites world-wide included in the UNESCO World Heritage list. The project started in June 2007 and finished in May 2009. The paper presents the project's aims and gives a description of the deliverables and the specifications, as well as the project difficulties.

Abstract:
In December 1834 Athens became the capital city of the newly founded Hellenic Kingdom. King Otto, the Bavarian prince whose political and cultural initiative shaped much of what modern Greece is today, sought to design the new city inspired by the heavily idealised model of Classical Hellas (see Bastea 2000). The emerging capital was from the outset conceived as aheterotopiaof Hellenism, a Foucauldian 'other space' devoted to Western Classicism in view of the Classical ruins it preserved. The Acropolis became, naturally, the focal point of this effort. At the same time, however, and as Greek n

Abstract:
The relationship between antiquity, archaeology and national imagination in Greece, the sacralisation of the Classical past, and the recasting of the Western Hellenism into an indigenous Hellenism have been extensively studied in the last 15 years or so (see e.g. Hamilakis 2007, 2009). In fact, Greece has proved a rich source of insights for other cases of nation-state heritage politics. The new Acropolis Museum project was bound to be shaped by the poetics of nationhood right from the start, given that its prime referent is the most sacred object of the Hellenic national imagination, the Acro

The main objective of this study was to investigate the stability of the Acropolis Hill, Greece, by developing a Rock Instability Model (RIM) based on fuzzy logic and remote sensing techniques. RIM aimed to identify locations on the rock formations of the Acropolis Hill that will potentially have instability issues due to the action of geomorphological factors, weathering and erosive processes. Six factors including lithology, slope angle, density of discontinuities, density of faults, density of surface runoff elements, and the orientation of the stratigraphy of the geological formations in r

Abstract:
The grand theme of the "liberation of Greece" is peculiar in the second and first centuries B.C. by being proclaimed more often by outsiders than by Greeks, and far more often by outsiders than by Athenians. The Athens that ultimately became wholly Roman after the disastrous hostage crisis provoked by Mithridatic forces on the Acropolis in the 80's started down that road by joining with a few other Greek city states to call in Roman aid against Philip V of Macedon in the 190's, and did so, arguably, believing it could leverage a projection of force by a war-weary Roman Republic to make itself

Abstract:
Joseph Hoffer, a Hungarian-born architect trained at the Polytechnikum of Vienna, worked in the newly independent Kingdom of Greece between 1833 and 1838. In Athens he surveyed with extraordinary accuracy the buildings of the Acropolis, which led to the discovery of one of the "refinements" of ancient architecture, the curvature of the horizontal parts of Greek temples. He published his findings in the Vienna Allgemeine Bauzeitung in 1838, but for some time his achievement was ignored. John Pennethorne, an English architect, claimed to have observed this same fact first, but he published it on

Abstract:
A society that regards nature as divine is constantly reminded of its dependence on the gods. It comes, therefore, as no surprise to find the sanctuary as major focus of the Greek community, in Athens literally occupying the centre of the city, the Acropolis. A central part of ancient religious life was the practice of offering gifts to the gods. The abundance of dedications on the Acropolis - which includes the full range from the simple terracotta figurines to exquisitely decorated pottery and life size marble sculpture - gives ample evidence of this. The Acropolis offers a unique opportunit

Yet to connect the presence of water on the Acropolis with the urban history of Athens has not been explicitly done to date, even though the Acropolis has been the focus of settlement from earliest times until today.

Actor Network Theory blends entanglement (human-material thing interdependence) with network thinking, so it allows us to reframe our views to include social network

Abstract For much of Europe, Napoleon left a legacy of nationalism that the Concert of Europe suppressed only with the greatest difficulty. Although he never occupied Greece (but for a few Ionian islands), much of Napoleon’s influence arrived there via western Europeans who visited as part of their Grand Tour, diverted southward because of the wars of the previous two decades. Wealthy Greeks traveled to western Europe or sent their sons there for education, and the stirring of nationalist feeling followed in their train.

Though the fragments do not join, their origin in the same monument is guaranteed not only by the nature of the texts they bear, but also by the treatment of the face and left edge of the block.

From Alexandria, they traveled to Cairo, where they wandered through the Ezbekieh Gardens and admired the palm trees and studied the hooded crows. They also took a train to Old Cairo and visited the pyramids.
