	Italy - Gods/Heroes - GREEK SCULPTURE
		After the death of Pheidias his methods were carried on in a way by the sculptors who had worked under him and become subject to his influence; but as years went on, with less and less to remind us of the supreme perfection of the master.
		The bas-reliefs from this temple, now in the Acropolis Museum at Athens, one representing the Victory stooping to tie her sandal, another, the Victory crowning a trophy, recall the consummate grace of the art of Pheidias, the greatest Greek art.
		Agoracritos left behind him works at Athens which in their perfection could scarcely be distinguished from the works of Pheidias himself, none of which have come down to us.

		During which time, the chorus, made up of knights enters, and attacks the Paphlagonian.
		Anyway, to cut a long story short, the Paphlagonian is beaten by the sausage-seller who turns out to be Agoracritos – the honest adviser of Thepeople.
		Thus, what I think Aristophanes was trying to show was that if Thepeople stayed stupid and selfish as it is – Athens will get the leaders it deserves (like me??), but if it recovers its wits, the leaders will be honest too (like Agoracritos).

		During the Byzantine Era, splendid monasteries and churches were erected on Paros, including the impressive Church of Panagia Ekatontapyliani (Our Lady of a Hundred Gates), the jewel of the island.

	Greece Paros History: The history of Paros Island, Greece, Cyclades
		The Ionians from Attica were the next to colonize the island and as a result, Paros’ naval strength grew, as did its agricultural activities and marble trade.
		During the Archaic Period, Paros colonized the island of Thassos, while literature and sculpture thrived, producing significant artists, such as the iambic poet Archilochos, the elegist Euenos and the sculptors Agoracritos, Scopas and Thrasymedes.
		Many famous Greek statues have been sculpted from Parian marble, such as the Aphrodite of Milo, the Maidens of the Acopolis, the Niki of Delos and the Hermes of Praxiteles.

	Rick Steves' Europe: Athens
		The largest Doric temple in Greece, measuring 101 ft by 228 ft, with 8 fluted Doric columns at each end and 17 along each side, was completed in just nine years (447-438 BC).
		It was built from the very finest materials and decorated with carved scenes of epic tales from Greek mythology created by master sculptors Agoracritos and Alcamenes.
		The best known of these sculptures are the controversial Elgin Marbles, which were removed from the temple's frieze by Englishman Lord Elgin in 1801 and now reside in the British Museum in London despite repeated requests for their return.
