They neither love nor know, A goddess of gone days, Departed long ago, Abandoning the invaded shrines and fanes Of her old sanctuary, A deity obscure and legendary, Of whom there now remains, For sages to decipher and priests to garble, Only and for a little while her letters wedged in marble, Which even now, behold, the friendly mumbling rain erases, And the inarticulate snow, Leaving at last of her least signs and traces None whatsoever, nor whither she is vanished from these places. - Edna St. Vincent Millay, Ode to Silence

Die Akropolis! Eine der bedeutendsten Stätten der Geschichte und Architektur - und damit ein Höhepunkt der Exkursion des Instituts für Baugeschichte an der TU Braunschweig @ib_tubs Eine Akropolis war im alten Griechenland die "Hohe Stadt" - eine Stadtburg, die in frügeschichtlicher Zeit auch als Fluchtburg umgebender Siedlungen diente. Im Laufe der Zeit wurden diese Orte zu religiösen Zentren und ritueller Handlungen. Das größte und bekanntestes Beispiel einer Akropolis ist diejenige in Athen - das Wahrzeichen Griechenlands. Die wichtigsten Baudenkmäler stammen sämtlich aus der Epoche der großen Blütezeit des Stadtstaats im mittleren 5. Jahrhundert v. Chr.: Der Torbau - das Propyläen, der Parthenon und das Erechtheion. Für diese Baudenkmäler kann geradezu universelle Bedeutung geltend gemacht werden. Seit zweieinhalb Jahrhunderten sind sie Gegenstand der Bau- und Geschichtsforschung und standen Pate für Bauwerke wie das Brandenburger Tor in Berlin. Ein hochmodernes Museum unterhalb der Akropolis zeigt die Geschichte des Ensembles und insbesondere originale Bauplastiken in bester didaktischer Aufbereitung zum ursprünglichen Kontext. #athen #athens #griechenland #greece #hellas #akropolis #antike #architektur #baugeschichte #bauforschung #parthenon #propyläen #erechtheion #burg #geschichte #museum #plastik

If you're interested in visiting the Erechtheion, an ancient Greek temple located on the Acropolis of Athens, there are a few things you should know to plan your trip effectively: Location: The Erechtheion is situated on the Acropolis of Athens, a historic citadel that overlooks the city of Athens. It's a prominent site and easily accessible from various parts of the city. Access: To reach the Acropolis, you can either walk uphill from the surrounding area of Plaka or use public transportation. There's also a metro station nearby called "Acropoli" on Line 2 (Red Line), which is convenient if you prefer not to walk the entire way. Opening Hours: The Acropolis and Erechtheion have specific opening hours, and it's recommended to check these in advance as they can vary throughout the year. Typically, they open early in the morning and close in the evening. Tickets: You'll need to purchase a ticket to enter the Acropolis complex, which includes access to the Erechtheion along with other monuments like the Parthenon. There are different ticket options available depending on what you want to visit. Guided Tours: Consider joining a guided tour of the Acropolis and Erechtheion. This can provide you with valuable insights into the history and significance of these ancient sites. Best Time to Visit: The Acropolis can get quite crowded, especially during peak tourist seasons. To avoid the crowds and the heat, consider visiting early in the morning or later in the afternoon. Respectful Behavior: When visiting the Erechtheion and other historic sites in Athens, remember to be respectful. This includes not touching the ancient structures, following any posted rules or guidelines, and being mindful of other visitors. Additional Attractions: While you're in the area, consider exploring other nearby attractions such as the Acropolis Museum, which houses artifacts from the Acropolis site, providing further context to your visit. Visiting the Erechtheion is a fantastic opportunity to immerse yourself in the rich history of ancient Greece and witness one of the most iconic landmarks of Western civilization. Enjoy your trip! #travel #greektemple #erechtheion #ethen

The caryatids of the Erechtheion in Athens. I have been wanting to paint these for a while but was unsure which colours to use. After putting it to a vote in my stories the most popular opinion was that they should be against a sky background. I’m quite happy with how the sky came out but have questioned my choice to strip the colours of the sculptures back to grey scale, I think I will probably come back these in the future and stick to the natural colours of the pantelic marble which is beautiful. The actual sculptures themselves and all of the egg and dart detail were very time consuming! #caryatids #erechtheion #athens #acropolis #artistsoninstagram #ancientgreece #classicalstudies #sculpture

The famous Caryatids columns at the Erechtheion on the Acropolis of Athens. The Caryatids columns are marble sculpted women figures forming architectural supports for the porch of Erechtheion. The Erechtheion is an ancient Greek temple (around 400 BCE) dedicated to both Athena and Poseidon, renowned for its distinctive elegance and the unique use of these sculptured figures. #caryatids #portrait #history #erechtheion #acropolis #greek #athens #greece #life #architecture #art #places #placestovisit #greece

King Cecrops, Athena, Poseidon, Erechtheus, Erichthonius all form the mythological foundation of ancient Athenian identity here at the Erechtheion (Erechtheum). The Erechtheum, not the Parthenon, represents the religious heart of ancient Athens housing the cult deities of Athena Polias and Poseidon Erechtheus. Check out my YouTube video on the Erechtheum, an exquisite piece of architecture with a fascinating history! #Erechtheum #TempleofAthenaPolias #Cecrops #Erechtheion #AthenaPolias #Erechtheus #Erichthonius #Athena #Poseidon #Athens #Acropolis #caryatid

The #Erechtheion has two porches or porticos, on its north and south sides. The roof of the north porch is supported by six ionic columns, while an opening in the floor of the building shows a mark that the Athenians claimed was made by Poseidon striking the rock with his trident. The south porch is the better known of the two. In the place of columns, six sculpted Korai, the #Caryatids, supported the roof. Although the name of their creator is unknown, it is thought that they are from the workshop of Alkamenes, a pupil of Pheidias. Many interpretations have been offered for the Caryatids. The most convincing of these contend that they comprise the above-ground monument for the tomb of Kekrops, which was located directly beneath. These were the choephoroi (libation bearers), who were rendering tribute to the dead king, with phialai (shallow libation bowls) held in their hands, as we know from ancient reproductions. The substitution of sculpted women for columns was not altogether rare in Greek architecture of the archaic period (7th—5th century BC). In an inscription on the temple itself, the statues of the Erechtheion were simply called Korai (maidens). The name "Caryatids" was given in later years because of their association with the young women of Karyai in Laconia, who used to perform a devotional dance in honor of the goddess Artemis. Five statues of the Caryatids are located today in the Museum of the Acropolis, of which one was smashed by a Turkish cannonball, while the sixth is in the British Museum. In lieu of the original statues on the Erechtheion, cast reproductions have been put in their place. -From the Museum of the Acropolis . . . . . #athens #greece #travel #athensgreece #greek #acropolis #ig #summer #photography #love #thessaloniki #visitgreece #photooftheday #athensvoice #art #instagood #athensvibe #city #travelphotography #gr #europe #fashion #mykonos #travelgram #santorini #greecestagram #picoftheday #athenscity

Looking down from Acropolis, there was Theater of Dionysus, the world’s first auditorium. 念願のアテネに到着。 入り口のプロピレア門は中央にドリア式、左右にイオニア式の柱。 パルテノン神殿の柱はドリア式で、46本。上に向かうほど内側に湾曲しているそうで、真ん中の膨らんだ形状(エンタシス)はのちに日本の法隆寺にも取り入れられている。 Parthenonの語源はPar(古い)thenon(神殿)。これに対しローマのパンテオンはPan(汎;全ての)theon (神)を意味するそう。 神殿や砦も圧巻でしたが、海抜150mから一望する市街地もまた美しかったです。 最後はこの日に見たご来光。 この夜に船が停電になるとは、この時は知る由もなかったのでした。 #greece #athens #acropolis #parthenon #propylaea #erechtheion #templeofathenanike #theaterofbionysus #odeonofherodatticus #ギリシャ #アテネ #パルテノン神殿 #備忘録

The Caryatids of the Acropolis in Athens are a breathtaking testament to ancient Greek artistry and architectural ingenuity. These sculpted female figures stand tall and graceful and serve as architectural supports in the Erechtheion, an iconic temple nestled on the sacred hill of the Acropolis. Carved from Pentelic marble in the 5th century BCE, each Caryatid embodies timeless beauty and strength. The six Caryatids stand in place of traditional columns, their draped garments known as peploses flowing elegantly around their bodies. Despite bearing the weight of the temple’s entablature, they appear poised and serene, their faces frozen in serene expressions that exude a sense of calm and dignity. In Greek mythology, Caryatids were young maidens from Caryae, a town in ancient Laconia, southern Greece. According to legend, Caryae allied with the Persians during the Persian Wars. As punishment for their betrayal, the Greeks conquered the town and killed the male inhabitants while enslaving the women and children. Originally, there were six Caryatids, but Lord Elgin removed one in the early 19th century and is now housed in the British Museum in London. However, the remaining five continue to captivate visitors from all corners of the globe, offering a glimpse into the artistic mastery of ancient Greek civilization. As symbols of feminine beauty and architectural innovation, the Caryatids stand as enduring icons of the Acropolis. They represent the harmonious blend of art, mythology, and engineering that defines Greek classical architecture. Their presence not only enriches the architectural landscape of the Acropolis but also serves as a powerful reminder of the cultural legacy and artistic achievements of ancient Greece. I cant wait to see them tomorrow! #Caryatids #Acropolis #AncientGreekArt #Erechtheion #ArchitecturalBeauty #PentelicMarble #GreekMythology #Caryae #PersianWars #Sculpture #ArtisticLegacy #MythologicalFigures #ArchitecturalDesign #LordElgin #BritishMuseum #CulturalHeritage #SymbolsofBeauty #GreekCivilization #ArtisticInnovation #ArchitecturalIcons #acropolis #athens #premierwellnesstravel

A palavra "Acropolis" vem do grego antigo e se refere à parte mais alta e fortificada de uma cidade, muitas vezes contendo importantes templos, palácios e edifícios governamentais. A Acrópole de Atenas é uma das mais famosas do mundo antigo e abriga vários templos e estruturas importantes, sendo o mais famoso deles o Partenon, dedicado à deusa Atena Nike, padroeira da cidade e deusa da vitória. Além do Partenon, outro templo notável na Acrópole é o de Erechtheion que foi construído em homenagem a várias divindades, incluindo Atena Polias, Poseidon e outras figuras mitológicas. Uma de suas características mais notáveis é o pórtico das Cariátides, com colunas esculpidas em forma de mulheres. A oliveira que fica no templo de Erechtheion é uma árvore sagrada que, segundo a lenda, foi plantada por Atena. É um dos símbolos da cidade e representa a conexão entre a mitologia grega e a história real da região. A árvore atual é uma descendente da oliveira original e é cuidadosamente preservada como parte da herança cultural da Grécia. #atenas #acropolis #erechtheion #parthenon
