Aitaloakarnania and Fokida
More from the long trip... continuing through Fokida, Lokrida, Aitolia, and Akarnania.
The monument to the slaughtered at Distomo (WWII).
Me at Osios Loukas Monastery.
The two churches at Osios Loukas.
Looking out over the valley below Osios Loukas.
Head of Apollo in chryselephantine, Delphi Museum. I did a presentation on this in 1999 with CYA! It's still one of my favorites.
View of the theater and temple of Apollo from above. The small building in the upper right corner is the Treasury of the Athenians.
Temple of Apollo at Delphi, from the inside. (Special permit.)
The Treasury of the Athenians at Delphi, from the inside. (Special permit.)
The gymnasium at Delphi.
The tholos at Delphi.
The sleepy (in winter) town of Galaxidi, which has a really, really great Nautical Museum. Best thing about the town.
The theater with the straight rows at Kalydon. Although no doubt a very important site (this theater is really interesting), the most notable thing about the site of Kalydon is the hoards of mosquitoes. I counted forty mosquito bites on myself before I gave up. Miraculously, they all disappeared within a day.
The heroon at Mesolonghi, for the Greek War of Independence.
The theater at Stratos. In case you're wondering what's going on with all the theaters everywhere, I'm writing my dissertation on them.
John demonstrates one method of entering an archaeological site (here, Stratos).
Steven demonstrates the other method.
The Roman baths at Nikopolis.
