Images of The Sanctuary of Artemis At Brauron

  • Wheel ruts on the Classical bridge.

  • The series of slotted bases in the building north of the stoa.

  • Stylobate of the west wind on the stoa — no anathyrosis indicates it never extended further.

  • Cuttings in the raised platforms in the dining rooms for the legs of couches — the lead used to secure the legs is visible.

  • Wheel ruts in the western entrance to the stoa.

  • The pool of the sacred spring with the stepped retaining wall (L), the temple podium and the church of Hagios Georgios at center.

Famous quotes containing the words images of, images and/or sanctuary:

    It was at a particular moment in the history of my own rages that I saw the Western world conditioned by the images of Marx, Darwin and Freud; and Marx, Darwin and Freud are the three most crashing bores of the Western world. The simplistic popularization of their ideas has thrust our world into a mental straitjacket from which we can only escape by the most anarchic violence.
    William Golding (b. 1911)

    There is immunity in reading, immunity in formal society, in office routine, in the company of old friends and in the giving of officious help to strangers, but there is no sanctuary in one bed from the memory of another. The past with its anguish will break through every defence-line of custom and habit; we must sleep and therefore we must dream.
    Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
