In the spring, the ground of the Agora archaeological park is covered in poppies and daisies while poplars and oaks shade many of the pathways. Some of these plants are wild and some were deliberately introduced to Athens in classical times. This booklet presents evidence for ancient horticulture in the Agora (for example, structured antique gardens were uncovered around the Temple of Hephaistos). Its colour plates also provide a useful guide to identifying modern Greek vegetation.

For what I say, my naughty way/All the boys must love me./Every ditty is so witty/Nobody stands above me.Anacreon of Teos, 563-478 B.C. From papyrus rolls, copied and recycled through the centuries, hundreds of short extracts written by Greek poets in the 7th and 6th centuries B.C. survive. This lovely collection, translated into English by a leading classicist, presents a selection of ca. 100 poems by 17 authors with useful historical introductions.

The Athenian Agora

Tillfälligt slut
As well as being a political centre, the Agora was the focus of a noisy and varied commercial life. This booklet illustrates the archaeological, documentary and pictorial evidence for such diverse trades as shoe-making, fish mongering, weaving and the manufacture of luxury goods and perfumes. Shopping was just one aspect of this public space: ancient Athenians would also have received medical treatment, been married and buried, made sacrifices, and received education in the Agora. The material remains from all of these activities are also discussed. Vivid illustrations and useful resources, such as a table of prices and coinage, bring the bustling marketplace to life.
