Μυκηναϊκός Θολωτός Τάφος Αχαρνών / Mycenaean Tholos Tomb of Acharnes, Attika, Greece
Ο Θολωτός Τάφος των Αχαρνών (ή του Μενιδίου, όπως είναι γνωστός στη βιβλιογραφία) ανασκάφηκε στα 1879 από το Γερμανικό Αρχαιολογικό Ινστιτούτο της Αθήνας.
Είναι ο καλύτερα διατηρημένος μυκηναϊκός θολωτός τάφος της Αττικής. Χρονολογείται στον 13ο αι. π.Χ. Κατασκευάστηκε για τα μέλη επιφανούς οικογένειας, πιθανότατα του άρχοντα. Καλύπτεται με τύμβο, που συγκρατείται περιμετρικά με χαμηλό τοιχίο. Αποτελείται κατά
το σύνηθες από τον δρόμο, το στόμιο και το θάλαμο. Ο κατηφορικός δρόμος (μήκους 27,72μ., πλάτους 3 μ.) οδηγούσε μέσω του στομίου (βάθους 3,55 μ., πλάτους 1,55 μ.) στον ταφικό θάλαμο. Ο θάλαμος έχει κυκλική κάτοψη, διαμέτρου 8,35 μ. και κυψελοειδές σχήμα.
Τα τοιχώματα είναι κτισμένα κατά το εκφορικό σύστημα, συγκλίνουν δηλαδή σταδιακά προς την κορυφή, όπου η οπή φράσσεται με μεγάλη πλάκα, την κλείδα, σε ύψος 9μ. περίπου από
το δάπεδο. Όλα τα τοιχώματα του τάφου είναι κτισμένα με αδρούς λίθους. Το υπέρθυρο
του στομίου αποτελείται από τρεις διαδοχικούς μονόλιθους. Πάνω από αυτό εσωτερικά διαπιστώνεται το ανακουφιστικό τρίγωνο, ενώ εξωτερικά υιοθετήθηκε ένα πρωτότυπο σύστημα με την τοποθέτηση οριζοντίως τεσσάρων μικρότερων λίθων με κενά μεταξύ τους. Αν και ο τάφος είχε συληθεί μάλλον από την αρχαιότητα περιείχε πολυάριθμα ευρήματα, όπως κοσμήματα από χρυσό, άργυρο, χαλκό, ήλεκτρο, υαλόμαζα και φαγεντιανή, σφραγίδες από ημιπολύτιμους λίθους, κράνος κατασκευασμένο από χαυλιόδοντες κάπρου, χάλκινα όπλα και πλήθος αντικειμένων από ελεφαντόδοντο. Από αυτά ξεχωρίζουν δύο λύρες και μία κυλινδρική πυξίδα με ανάγλυφη απεικόνιση κριών. Επίσης βρέθηκαν πήλινα και λίθινα αγγεία. Αξιοσημείωτοι είναι τέσσερις αμφορείς από τη Χαναάν, που μαρτυρούν τις επαφές με τη νοτιοανατολική Μεσόγειο. Τα ευρήματα από την επίχωση του δρόμου του τάφου υποδεικνύουν ότι αποδίδονταν τιμές στους προγόνους στα μετέπειτα χρόνια μέχρι τον 5ο αι. π.Χ. Τα ευρήματα από το Θολωτό Τάφο των Αχαρνών εκτίθενται στο Εθνικό Αρχαιολογικό Μουσείο.

Greece ~ Athens and Poros Island
Join us in Greece! Ascend the Acropolis and gaze upon the Parthenon, shielded by its perch from the sounds of the city below. Then leave the city behind to experience the slower pace of island life on Poros, one of the idyllic Saronic Islands. Stroll by the sparkling sea, and watch the day unfold. See freshly caught octopus hanging to dry by a waterfront taverna; listen to the banter from the kafenion, the neighborhood coffee shop; and join the fun at a festive Greek night. Poros, opposite the storied Peloponnese, gives you access to the best of Greece. Explore the 2,400-year-old theater in Epidaurus and the fascinating ruins of Mycenae. Visit the island of Hydra, and pretty Nafplio, the country’s first capital. Enjoy first-class accommodations during two nights in Athens and five nights on Poros. The extensive meal plan features wine with dinner. We hope you join us!

Cape Sounion - VIDEO TOUR (Sounion, Greece)
On our first day of landing into Athens, we drove directly down to Cape Souion to see the Temple of Poseidon! The area and views are beyond amazing! It was an interesting 40-50 mile drive from Athens (You'll see! lol) and very worth it!! The houses are very expensive in this part of Greece and it's a hidden paradise on the Aegean sea.
Cape Sounion (Modern Greek: Aκρωτήριο Σούνιο, transliterated Akrotírio Soúnio, pronounced [akroˈtirʝo ˈsuɲo]; Ancient Greek: Ἄκρον Σούνιον, Άkron Soúnion; Venetian: Capo Colonne, Cape of Columns) is a promontory located 69 kilometres (43 mi) south-southeast of Athens, at the southernmost tip of the Attica peninsula in Greece.
Cape Sounion is noted as the site of ruins of an ancient Greek temple of Poseidon, the god of the sea in classical mythology. The remains are perched on the headland, surrounded on three sides by the sea. The ruins bear the deeply engraved name of English Romantic poet Lord Byron (1788–1823).
The site is a popular day-excursion for tourists from Athens, with the sunset over the Aegean Sea, as viewed from the ruins, a sought-after sight.

Greek art
Greek art (or, more correctly, art in Greece) began in the Cycladic and Minoan civilization, and gave birth to Western classical art in the subsequent Geometric, Archaic and Classical periods (with further developments during the Hellenistic Period). It absorbed influences of Eastern civilizations, of Roman art and its patrons, and the new religion of Orthodox Christianity in the Byzantine era and absorbed Italian and European ideas during the period of Romanticism (with the invigoration of the Greek Revolution), right up until the Modernist and Postmodernist. Greek art is mainly five forms: architecture, sculpture, painting, pottery and jewelry making.

Corinthian Canal - Isthmus of Corinth - TugBoat passing through
Isthmus of Corinth
The Isthmus of Corinth is the narrow land bridge which connects the Peloponnese peninsula with the rest of the mainland of Greece, near the city of Corinth. The word isthmus comes from the Ancient Greek word for neck and refers to the narrowness of the land.[1] The Isthmus was known in the ancient world as the landmark separating Peloponnese from mainland of Greece. In the first century CE the geographer Strabo[2] noted a pillar on the Isthmus of Corinth, which bore two inscriptions. One towards the East, i.e. towards Megara in Attica reading: Here is not Peloponnesus, but Ionia (τάδ᾽ οὐχὶ Πελοπόννησος, ἀλλ᾽ Ἰωνία) and the one towards the West, i.e. towards the Peloponnese: Here is Peloponnesus, not Ionia (τάδ᾽ ἐστὶ Πελοπόννησος, οὐκ Ἰωνία); Plutarch ascribed the erection of the stele to the Attic hero Theseus, on his way to Athens. [3]
To the west of the Isthmus is the Gulf of Corinth, to the east the Saronic Gulf. Since 1893 the Corinth Canal has run through the 6.3 km wide isthmus, effectively making the Peloponnese an island. Today, two road bridges, two railway bridges and two submersible bridges at both ends of the canal connect the mainland side of the isthmus with the Peloponnese side. Also a military emergency bridge is located at the west end of the canal.
History of the canal
The idea for a shortcut to save boats sailing all round the Peloponnese was long considered by the Ancient Greeks. The first attempt to build a canal there was carried out by the tyrant Periander in the 7th century BC. He abandoned the project owing to technical difficulties, and instead constructed a simpler and less costly overland stone ramp, named Diolkos, as a portage road. Remnants of Diolkos still exist today next to the modern canal. When the Roman republic (later to be the Roman Empire) took control of Greece, a number of different solutions were tried. Julius Caesar foresaw the advantages of a link for his newly built Colonia Laus Iulia Corinthiensis. By the reign of Tiberius, engineers tried to dig a canal, but were defeated by lack of modern equipment. Instead they built an Ancient Egyptian device: boats were rolled across the isthmus on logs, as the Egyptians had rolled blocks of granite to make their pyramids. This was in use by AD 32. In AD 67, the philhellene Roman emperor Nero ordered 6,000 slaves to dig a canal with spades. According to Pliny the Elder, the work advanced four stadia (about 5/8 kilometers).[4] The following year Nero died, and his successor Galba abandoned the project as being too expensive.
In the modern era, the idea was first seriously proposed in 1830, soon after Greece's independence from the Ottoman Empire, and was brought to completion in 1893 after eleven years' work.
