Heir to an ancient legacy of 7,000 years. Hellenic civilization, Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman left deep traces on these lands. And these traces played a great role in the development of modern Europe and Western civilization. The contributions of these lands to the history of humanity are innumerable. Democracy, law, thought, literature and language sprouted here in many ways and spread to the world, especially Europe. The fathers of philosophy, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle… The fathers of mathematics: Pythagoras, Euclid and Archimedes… The father of history, Heradot, the father of medicine, Hippocrates… And many more fathers were wandering in these lands thousands of years ago, unaware of what a great legacy they would leave humanity. While the first foundations of democracy were laid in this city, the Theater also developed here.
Yes. We are in Greece, the cradle of civilization, the naughty child of Europe, we are in Athens.
