		The first Stadium to be built on this site was constructed of wood in 330 B.C. The marble structure, of which the present day Stadium (Stadio) is a faithful replica, was built by Herodes Atticus.
		It is also known as 'Kallimarmaro stadio" (: good all-marble stadium).
		It was used as a venue for the athletic games held during the feast of Panathenaea, hence its name Panathenaikon.

	Panathinaic Stadium - Athens Info Guide
		The Panathenaic stadium (in Greek: Panathinaiko stadio, meaning stadium of all the Athenians), is also known as Kallimarmaro which means "made of fine marble".
		When you are in Athens and especially when you're looking for directions, never call it Olympic stadium, as people will think you are talking about the modern Olympic stadium, in the northern suburbs.
		In short, call it either Panathenaic or Kallimarmaro and people will know what you are talking about.

		It is located in the centre of the city, on Vassileos Konstantinou Avenue, on the east side of the National Gardens.
		When you're in Athens (especially when you're looking for directions), NEVER call it this way, as people will think you are talking about the modern Olympic Stadium, in the northern suburbs.
		Call it either "Panathenaic" or "Kallimarmaro" and people will know what you are talking about.

		Modern Athens is a dense sprawl of urban development that has expanded to cover the entire plain of Attica, with further expansion blocked by surrounding mountains — Mount Hymettus is seen here, east of the city - and the waters of the Saronic Gulf.
		And east of the Acropolis can be seen the distinctive all-marble Panathinaiko Stadium (also known as Kallimarmaro Stadium), a reconstructed ancient stadium where the 1896 Games were held, where this year's archery events are being held, and the Olympic Marathon is finishing.
		Visible down on the coast are the jetties of the Agios Kosmas Olympic Sailing Centre, towards the base of the image.

		For the acclaimed Athens designer has been responsible for redesigning the Olympic medals that, since 1928, have not only been symbolically incorrect but have failed to reflect the Greek origin and character of the Games.
		On the flipside of the medal, Votsi chose to layer an engraving of the Olympic Flame over a line from Pindar's 8th Olympic Ode, composed in 460BC to honour the victory of Alkimedon of Aegina in an Olympic wrestling match.
		While this side of the medal will be changed every four years by the host city, the side showing the Kallimarmaro and Nike will remain the same at all future Olympic Games.

		Indeed a problem actually arose when the erection of a correspondence column at the Kallimarmaro Panathenean stadium was created to host the names of the "Golden Olympians".
		The problem was over which name would be written for the "golden victory" of the sailing competition at the 1960 Olympics held in Rome.
