★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Base en pierre qui supportait une immense statue de la déesse Athéna sur l'Acropole. Celle-ci fût transporté à Constantinople quand le christianisme est devenu religion d'état et l''hellénisme prohibé. La statue géante a très certainement été fondue pour récupérer l'or. Il ne reste plus grand-chose de ce piédestal.
Stone base that supported a huge statue of the goddess Athena on the Acropolis. This was transported to Constantinople when Christianity became the state religion and Hellenism prohibited. The giant statue was most certainly melted down to recover the gold. There isn't much left of this pedestal.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Στέκει αγέρωχος παρά τις πληγές του. Γοητευτικός, επιβλητικός και ταυτόχρονα λιτός. Είναι απίστευτη η αίσθηση του να περπατάς εκεί που άφησαν τα χνάρια τους αρχαίοι σοφοί, ρήτορες, πολεμιστές, ιερείς, ιέρειες...
Δε θα αναφερθώ στην αδιαφορία των υπευθύνων. Εκείνο που έχει σημασία, είναι τα συναισθήματα που δημιουργεί ο Ιερός Βράχος.
He stands haughty despite his wounds. Charming, imposing and at the same time austere. It is an incredible feeling to walk where the ancient sages, orators, warriors, priests, priestesses left their traces ...
I will not refer to the indifference of those responsible. What matters is the emotions created by the Sacred Rock.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This decorated pedestal showing Roman era relief mouldings in its crowning is all that remains of the colossal nine meters high bronze statue of Athena Promakhos (Champion Athena), which after its dedication on 458 BC, greeted ancient visitors to the acropolis as soon as they left the monumental Propylaea behind.
This monumental statue was so large that It was reckoned that seafarers could see the top of the statue from their ships.
The statue was relocated to Byzantium' Hippodrome during the Byzantine period were was destroyed in a riot at the beginning of the 13th century.
