Pretty awesome picture.
By the way, out of curiosity, what are your thoughts on the Eleusinian Mysteries?
I don't know what I'm looking at?? So all I know is that it is saying, "Here is an archeological testimony of the engineering, construction, & hard working ability of a former civilization that had a significant functioning culture." :-\
Agree. What the heck am I looking at? Roman or Greek construction?Quote:

That's an original Dorian city, that fell into different hands through time.
You can see Ionian columns, but there is an old Dorian temple which tells
you who built it.
At one point in this area Belisarious came to save the West from the barbarians.
One of the greatest Roman generals that ever existed, he was betrayed by his
jealous Emperor because he became so popular due to his success which was
cut short to the detriment of other cities that were later mass murdered .
Later in this area Christian Bishops would come to these lands to ransom
the kidnapped Christian slave girls back to Europe.
You are looking at modern day Libya, sadly.
Those stones speak to our future.
I was going to post that picture in this thread.

Are you sure Zato hasn't destroyed this by now?Quote:

Good point, some historians have highlighted these archaeological findsQuote:

The Hindu : News / International : ‘Massive looting of ancient artefacts underway in Libya’
Italians discover hoard of Roman statues : The works have been protected by a temple wall which collapsed during an earthquake 1,600 years ago
(Edek Osser)
An Italian team of archaeologists has discovered 76 intact Roman statues at Cyrene in Libya. The discovery is remarkable because the site, once a thriving Greek and then Roman settlement, has been under excavation for the last 150 years.
With a nearby coastal port, Apollonia, serving it, Cyrene was once a conurbation equivalent to Alexandria, Carthage and Leptis Magna. An important Dorian colony, founded by Greek settlers from the island of Thera in 631 BC, it was later ruled by the Ptolemies and then the Romans. It was destroyed by an earthquake in 375 AD but continued to be inhabited until the Byzantine period.
At the end of the seventh century BC, the city was not only famous for its grain and wealth, but also for a quasi-miraculous plant, silphium, which has medicinal properties. The trade in silphium, distributed all over the ancient world, was monopolised by Cyrene for at least 200 years. Up until the Roman conquest, silphium was even printed on its currency.
A sacred site in Cyrene, made up of many temples, was discovered by Italian archaeologists between the first and second world wars.
The latest discovery is the work of Mario Luni, an archaeologist from the University of Urbino, who has been working with his team at the site since 1997. Speaking to The Art Newspaper, Professor Luni said: “One morning, a collapsed wall in the Roman temple, which was discovered in the 1930s, revealed a marble serpent wrapped around a stone. We could not have known that this was only the first in a series of statues of every kind and size that we would pull from the ground. We just kept discovering them every day, for a month and a half, and found 76 in total.”
Professor Luni stressed that the excavations were “an ongoing collaboration with the Libyan department of antiquities which has agreed to gradually rediscover ancient Cyrene”.
This incredible haul brings to mind the 54 marble sculptures discovered by English archaeologists at Cyrene in the mid-19th century at the temple of Aphrodite, which are now housed in the British Museum.
At least 12 of the newly discovered statues are 20 to 35 centimetres high and show Cybele, daughter of the goddess Demeter, in different poses. These statues are linked to fertility ceremonies associated with the goddess. They were lined up along the back wall of the area inside the temple. The remaining works, some smaller and others much larger, are dedicated to other gods. All the statues date from the Severan period in the second century BC.
According to Professor Luni, these statues have remained undiscovered for so long because “during the earthquake of 375 AD, a supporting wall of the temple fell on its side, burying all the statues. They remained hidden under stone, rubble and earth for 1,600 years. The other walls sheltered the statues, so we were able to recover all the pieces, even works that had been broken”.
Also, before World War II, during the Italian occupation of Libya, a pine forest was planted which covered the ruins of ancient Cyrene, hiding the city—which Professor Luni calls “the Athens of Africa”—under a layer of earth and trees.
Professor Luni’s team has so far focused on central public areas, the heart of the monumental city, such as the forum, the public square and the scared site with its temples. But Cyrene is vast and spread out over an enormous area. The excavations, which will take decades to complete, will now concentrate on the immense Greek settlement, the most ancient part, which was home to successive generations of inhabitants until the Byzantine era and is, as yet, completely unexplored.
Professor Luni said, “Researching the pieces will take at least a couple of years. We have photographed and catalogued the pieces and are currently restoring them”.
He has made many other astounding discoveries at Cyrene. Three years ago, he discovered a large theatre carved into the stone hillside in the public square. He then started to excavate the sacred site and has so far located five temples to the south of the city’s forum. The first, a monumental temple of six columns dedicated to Demeter, was found in 1999 and is still being excavated.
Probably everything over time, the Romans building the most later.Quote:

which is significant, and only the Greeks had theaters. Wiki article
barely even talks about Greeks and Dorians. Some of the Roman
architecture has Ionian columns, these come later. The Dorian temple
has to be older than they are. Greeks were major colonizers of the Med even
1500 BC and they were traders, controlling the Med, long before
Phoenicians. Dorians may have taken them over later though. Also did their colonizing in groups,
nearby are clear Dorian cities. City changed hands many times, only the
stones know the truth. I did some of my own searches but not hard books, no luck.

Every once and a while you post dribble garbage that fits a pattern.
Magnes, I'm still interested in your thoughts on the Eleusinian Mysteries, which went on for many centuries.
This thread is not about that, it could go many ways, seeing you are the oneQuote:

I'm not sure from where your animosity towards me of late is coming... What did I do that bothered you? You and I helped build this place, "recruiting" (more like rescuing) people from GIM1/GIM2. Why do you have a problem with me all of the sudden?
As for the Mysteries, I have no agenda; I think the "Initiates" tripped balls, probably off some ergot-based, LSD-related compound that was contained in the kykeon that was drunk by the participants.
I wasn't around in ancient Greece, but LSD and other psychedelics can produce mystical experiences. For sure!
