Greece: Travellers History
Historical Greece, long regarded as the cradle of civilisation, attracts archaeologists, historians and researchers as nowhere else on earth. Already the knowledge and understanding of historical events in this part of the world is enough to fill volumes and it continues to grow. This brief account aims at nothing more ambitious than to lend some perspective to your travels. In this respect, it will concentrate largely on events on the mainland and dwell more on the age when the great temples and cities were built. Nowhere else in the world does the force of history overwhelm the mind in such a startling fashion as when you are standing amongst rocks fashioned and placed by the hand of man with such architectural brilliance. It is sometimes necessary to pinch yourself to remember that they were built millenniums of years ago.
