(ARCHAEOLOGY THREAD) I've been going back to many sites & museums in Athens taking video for my online class

I love the way video captures the 3D nature of objects. It'll revolutionize my teaching

White ground lekythos showing tomb with offerings. From Eretria @namuseumathens

Red-figure rhyton in the shape of a Ram's head. From Anavyssos, Attica (460-450 BCE) @namuseumathens

Here's a pic of it further up

The Erechtheion on the Athenian Acropolis

Panning over to the wall of the Athenian Acropolis, built partly with columns from the old Parthenon

Peering in to the Erechtheion

Showing just how hard it is to see the Parthenon frieze in context (south side)

Eastern facade of the Parthenon

Temple of Olympian Zeus and the Panathenaia stadium from the Acropolis

Walking along the Parthenon frieze in the Acropolis Museum (where it's displayed perfectly at eye level)

Walking around some of the sculptural blocks from the Erechtheion

Zooming up close to get the decorative detail on a door from the Erechtheion

The karyatids on the Acropolis museum

Sculptural representation of theatrical masks in the Acropis museum

I've got so many more! Hopefully my students appreciate all the effort I'm putting in to bring the ancient world to them

Because archaeology is all about looking close!
