You're standing on the Acropolis of Athens, somewhere between the Propylaea and the Erechtheion. Take a look at the ground. The stone remains here are all that's left of the pedestal of one of the most famous statues of the ancient world: the Athena Promachos. That pedestal measured roughly five and a half metres on each side. Now imagine what stood on top of it.
