🎶 You and me got a whole lot of history 🎶 The Acropolis is made up many ancient historical sites that is within the citadel making it a little city of its own back in its glory days. First stop - The Odeon of Herodes Atticus. By the way you know the sound of like ‘cengkerik’ in the background, it’s everywhere in Greece and escoeaillu in Acropolis so we were trying to see them and kept stopping at every other tree to spot them but I guess their too small for the naked eye to see. What fascinating creatures. “The word acropolis is from the Greek words ἄκρον (akron, "highest point, extremity") and πόλις (polis, "city"). The term acropolis is generic and there are many other acropoleis in Greece. During ancient times it was known also more properly as Cecropia, after the legendary serpent-man, Cecrops, the supposed first Athenian king. The Acropolis of Athens is an ancient citadel located on a rocky outcrop above the city of Athens and contains the remains of several ancient buildings of great architectural and historical significance, the most famous being the Parthenon. The Odeon of Herodes Atticus (Greek: Ωδείο Ηρώδου του Αττικού; also called Herodeion or Herodion; (Greek: Ηρώδειο) is a stone Roman theater structure located on the southwest slope of the Acropolis of Athens, Greece.It was built in 161 AD by the Greek Herodes Atticus in memory of his Roman wife, Aspasia Annia Regilla. It was used as a venue for music concerts with a capacity of 5,000. It lasted intact until it was destroyed and left in ruins by the Heruli in 267 AD.” - Wikipedia #ADashOfSash💋 #CommittedToTheCelopians #DiaryOfADevotedDomesticatedDabawi #TheElusiveFairytaleOfTheHalfBloodPrincessSayang
