And it was built 2400 years ago and to this day with the aid of computers They still can’t rebuild it It’s been 30 years it was originally built in 9 Completed

Eat Shit 👍

Did you know there is a full scale replica in Nahsville with a full scale gold leaf replica of Athena inside? I just learned about it myself.

@@georgeevangel3956 Crazy, I wonder what kind of technology they had. I believe it was behind the brilliant minds of the architects.. and of course the hundreds of slaves :D

@@heinguy8560 Error! The "slaves" were paid as much as an Athenian citizen! The biggest banker in Athens was a slave! Slaves had everything but political rights.

2500 years ago as well!

Hello from Greece too. Yes there was an explotion when borondini bombed parthenon in a siege. In thw video there is a demonstration of the momument as it was after construction.. Thank you!!

What is Arkansas?

@@DOMIKOIPTYXIAKES *Morosini not borondi. And the exact date was 1687. I mean the information is readily available on the internet,

Σας ευχαριστούμε θερμά!

Thank you!

Originally, Mersianna, I didn't trust Greece to have the will nor the technology to care for the marbles, as carefully as British Museum could. Since then, I have visited the Acropolis and the Museum. I have seen first hand the tremendous effort, care and above all, expertise that is being funded to restore and protect the site. That visit has gone a long, long way to altering my opinion. Don't get me wrong. I still feel very possessive of the marbles and would hate to have them moved from the BM. However, I did think that, on balance, it would have been better to see them in their proper place.

@@farrier2708 You know what we had enought with your excuses about our marbles. It is OURS our ancestors build those magnificent temples. You don't have the right to speak for them.

​@@Poseidonios_Bellerophon At the time Elgin removed the marbles, the British Museum was the safest place for them. If you actually read my comment, you would have understood ; from what I have seen ; your new museum in Athens, is an excellent institution. Although I would be sad if they were returned, I think, on balance, that Athens is probably the right place for them. I am not speaking for for your ancestors. I am merely expressing my own personal opinion. Which I have every right to do. I also think that an aggressive response to any argument is counter productive. Especially when the opinion being expressed is siding with you.

@@Poseidonios_Bellerophon There is no point in attacking the dead over the mores of their age. Chill out, stop your pointless rant and realise I am on your side.

Your comment honors me. The spiritual conqueror is actually the one who knows that he can be taught by someone else.

@@DOMIKOIPTYXIAKES Confucius :D

thats what i was thinking, all these layers and layers and bases and layers and then more layers lol. It still stands. Not in good shape, but stands. So they wanted it to last.

@@AnnaBananiya It was well preserved until the 17th century, when during a war between the ottomans and venetians, the building was being used as a weapons deposit, a explosion happened and caused the damage seen today.

Εμείς σας ευχαριστούμε!!

Σας ευχαριστούμε πολύ!!!!!!!!

i can translate for you sir if u are still interested in. i'll use times of the video and next to them, the orologies in english.

i want! :-D

galacu ...... falas maravilhosamente bem o Português.... parabens

The skills are still here using different methods of course. Considering the artists working on the restoration of the temple the craftsmanship still exists. What is long lost are the social bonds and education of that society, that lead to the creation of such delicate and balanced works.

Thanks!!

Thank you, we too!!!

@@DOMIKOIPTYXIAKES THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ❤😍❤😍❤😍❤😍❤😍❤😍❤😍❤

Thank you!! The students name is Anna Rossi. She created that animation. If you are interested i can send you her email. Thanks again!!

Yes please send me her email I would appreciate it very very much...thanks a lot...

@@DOMIKOIPTYXIAKES Where can I read the thesis?

Thank you!!

Hi Orion,Have been to Nashville. It is indeed way cool. Thank You.

Apparently the one aspect of the miracle called the Parthenon is the building itself which even in modern times terms is an astounding and unsurpassed architectural marvel. But what makes it even more mind-blowing is how they manage to conceive it and execute it the 5th century BC, with that technology and without the mass information available today. I would also be interested to see the Nashville copy but a full restoration/re-build of the Parthenon would tag a Disneyland aesthetic to the whole site. I can reassure you that the moment you go through the Propulaea complex and you have a first view of the Parthenon under the Attica sky, it is a truly breathtaking experience that fills you with awe.

Thank You PanOsGr. It is on my bucket list for sure!

@orionh3000 Ha... U wish!!

@orionh3000 it is better ? From the original? What exactly do you mean ?

Obrigado !!

Με τιμά το σχόλιό σας κυρία Παπαιωάννου. Σας ευχαριστώ για τις χρήσιμες υποδείξεις αλλά (δεδομένου ότι το παρόν αποτελεί διπλωματική εργασία φοιτήτριας η οποία έχει εδώ και χρόνια ολοκληρώσει τις σπουδές της) μάλλον δεν θα καταφέρουμε να τις υλοποιήσουμε. Σας ευχαριστώ!!

Η πατρίδα μας είναι πάντα μέσα μας. Πέρα και πάνω από τοπολογικά όρια. Ελλάς είναι φώς. Φως στη σκέψη, ο καπνός δε, της φωτιάς της είναι πάντοτε ορατός από τον κάθε Έλληνα απανταχού!! Καλή επιστροφή!!

The marbles where white but painted in all the ancient temples. Unfortunately over the centuries the paint has been lost.

Ali Uyar thank you sir have a nice day!

Finally... someone with an intelligent comment!! Blessings!!

Thanks Ali. A good start could be the marbles resettlement from an English ?!!? museum to the momument...

Diploma Projects The marbles wouldn’t go back to the actual monument. They would go to a museum in Athens.

Yes

subtatiles are enought... a video speaking for a hellenic piece of art into hellenic language... are just perfect :)

If Lord Elgin had not SAVED the metopes by bringing them to London, where you can admire them, they whould have perished because of the lack of interest, lack of care and indifference of the GREEK PEOPLE !

@@ezzovonachalm7038The Greeks apologize, they regret it. If you were not born, if the Greeks did not give birth to all of you, humanity would be better.

@@ezzovonachalm7038 are you idiot ? the Greeks were occupied by the Ottomans at 1802 when elgin STOLE them
