Pellaponese

Be sure to check out the panoramic version of the theatre at Epidarius.

(683 x 1024 - 68K) The Corinthian canal. Just 85 feet wide at the bottom. They tried to build this in ancient times but could not. It was finally completed early in this century.
(1280 x 854 - 204K) Climbing up into the city of Agamemnon.		(1280 x 854 - 154K) Another view of the lions
(683 x 1024 - 87K) The treasury of the father of Agamemnon. When found, it was entirely empty. It was huge, however, and had a huge single stone over its door. To this day they don't know how ancient technology got that stone up there. The room was then covered to look like a hill.		(683 x 1024 - 84K) I pose under the famous Lion's gate at the city of Agamemnon. The heads of the lions were gold, it is supposed, and thus they are gone.
(1280 x 854 - 148K) Another shot of the lions.		(1280 x 854 - 182K) A wide shot of the amphitheatre at Epidarius. It's still in use today. The acoustics are tremendous.
(1280 x 854 - 198K) An excavated gravesite in the city. Apparently quite a lot of wealth was found in these otherwise ordinary graves, leading to much speculation as to how much must have been in the treasury.]
