"What remains of ancient Athens lies directly below the modern-day city. In this account of a recently completed archaeological excavation, full-color photographs present the underground framework of this city that has existed for millennia, along with the foundations of age-old houses, marketplaces, and temples. Covering the entire span of life in Athens from the Mycenaean to the Byzantine period, the 500 objects ar organized into three sections: public and private life, religion, and burial customs."--BOOK JACKET.
