This is the descent to the excavations of the stoa basileôs, the building in which Socrates was indicted and the site of the Euthyphro.

Prof. John Camp at the stoa basileôs. Note the lithos, or oath-stone, to his right.

Here's a column drum with the space for an iron brace between it and the next drum.

This is the ruin of what may be the prison in which Socrates died (only a 50-50 chance, according to John Camp). The front area contains fragments of an imbedded pithos.

This is the frieze at the west end of the cella as seen from scaffolding set up to remove the friezes, which were damaged in the 1991 earthquake.

The same friezes; from here the view over Athen was breathtaking.

This is inside the Parthenon, looking at cranes for the restoration that's been in progress for years.

The tholos across the road from the Temple of Apollo at Delphi is probably the most photographed site in the ancient Greek ruins.

Here is the temple of Poseidon overlooking the Agean at Sounion.
