Digital composition of the Parthenon with the east pediment superimposed. The east pediment’s reconstruction as it appears in the Acropolis Museum is used here to approximate the building’s original appearance.

Ψηφιακή σύνθεση του Παρθενώνα με το ανατολικό αέτωμα επάνω. Η ανακατασκευή του ανατολικού αετώματος, όπως εμφανίζεται στο Μουσείο της Ακρόπολης χρησιμοποιείται εδώ για να προσεγγίσει την αρχική εμφάνιση του κτηρίου.

Fragmentary colossal marble head of a youth Greek, Hellenistic period, 2nd century B.C. The Metropolitan Museum of Art, NYC

Although this extraordinary head has long been known, its function and importance have only recently been understood.  The youth, with long curling locks and a brooding expression, was originally part of a draped bust set into a marble roundel almost four feet in diameter.  It is probably among the earliest known sculptures of this type (imagines clipeatae) in marble and over life-size in scale.  It would have been one of several that adorned the walls of a particular grand space in the gymnasium of ancient Pergamon.  He may represent a young god or possibly Alexander the Great.  Even in its damaged condition, the head exemplifies the combination of sensitivity and presence characteristic of the finest Hellenistic Pergamene sculpture.

The Asklepieion of Epidaurus, Greece

Epidaurus was a sacred healing place devoted to Asklepius, the god of medicine. An Asklepieion was the temple of Asklepius, where people would go with the hope to be cured. There were many such sanctuaries in Greece, but Epidaurus was especially famous and visited by people from all over Greece because this was a place where Asklepius was born, according to the myth. To find out the right treatment for them, people spent the night in a sleeping room and the god himself would come to their dreams and tell them what to do in order to be cured.
