Pausanias' description of Greece, Volume I. by Pausanias
"Pausanias' Description of Greece, Volume I" by Pausanias is a travel account written in the second century AD. The sole surviving work of this ancient geographer, it chronicles journeys through mainland Greece across ten books. Pausanias documents religious sites, temples, sacred relics, and architectural monuments while weaving together mythology, history, and local legends. His observations of cultural geography provide invaluable insights into ancient Greek beliefs and heritage, capturing a world of gods,
heroes, and mysterious sacred objects that modern archaeology has increasingly validated. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
