was born at Antioch in Syria, not in Lydia. Steplianus of Byzantium cites the works of the two men, the KriVis 'Avrio;(ctas and the Uepi.rjyr}(Ti<:, under the simple name Pausanias, but this proves nothing more than that in the fifth century the two writers of this name were not readily distingviished. We must therefore rest content with the knowledge tliat our author lived and traveled in the second century, and was born near Mount Sipylus in Asia Minor. 4. Aim and viethod of the Ferlegeshi. That Pausanias has given to the world a work of unique value is manifest to any one who notes its contents. We have here a book rich in antiquarian, mythological, historical, and artistic lore, and the very nature of the subject-matter arouses the question what was the author's aim in preparing his work. The answer is nowhere clearly given by him. He begins his book without a preface he concludes without an ej)ilogue. Probably his Avork was left unfinished and no opportunity was given to revise it; probably, while it served its purpose, the author felt there was no need of explanatory remarks. Hence the answer to our question is largely a matter of inference but we can, at any rate, gather from utterances here and there what Avas the aiithor's general purpose, and how his method develo])ed as his grasp

of the subject increased.

THE ATTICA OF PAUSANIAS


From

these passages and from a study of the contents of the work becomes clear that "Pausanias intended to describe all the most notable objects and to narrate all the most memorable traditions
it

which he found existing or current in the Greece of his own time." ^ This was a vast undertaking, especially so in the case of Attica, the first country he undertook to describe. Here he was bewildered by an embarrassment of riches before he had definitely decided on a method of treating the data he had at hand. Hence the author's method is not so clearly defined in the first as in the later books. Beginning with Book II, he regularly prefaces his account of every important city with a historical sketch and follows strictly tlie
topographical order of description.

denies to describe the mountains of Attica
(cf. 1,

32, 1

and

1,

35, 1

ff.).

Again, he mentions fewer notable objects in proportion to the total

number

Athens than he does in any other important centre of monuments in Athens are shorter than those in the remaining books. Contrast, for example, his description of Athens with that of Olympia, the former embracing only thirty chapters of one book, or seventy Teubner pages, while to the latter is devoted the larger part of two books, being forty chapters or one hundred and ten Teubner pages. Temples and statues in the whole of Athens, however, were far more nmnerous and imposing
in

Greece, and his accounts of notable

than in Olympia.

The explanation

of the defects of the Attica

is,

of course, that the author was finding himself in his

new work, and

had not altogether arrived at a definite plan. The topographical method already adopted in the description of Athens reveals the author's purpose in preparing the work. Thus, he begins by describing the harbors of Athens, and the objects of interest on the roads leading from the harbors to the city. He next enters the principal gate and proceeds by a broad avenue to the Agora, which he treats in great detail. Thence he traverses the

THE ATTICA OF TAUSAXIAS

Yet lie affirms that he saw personally and to have seen certain things implies that he saw others. There are descriptions which Pansanias may have taken from books, bnt there is no description extant so like in form and snbstance to what Pansanias has written that one can say he copied from it. Frazer considers in detail a nnmber of passages and never mentions by name.

Prazer discusses in considerable detail the predecessors

whom

Pansanias ought to have consulted, namely Pseudo-Dicaearchus the


Messenian, Diodorus of Athens, Heliodorus, and Polemon, whose

known through extant fragments. Of Polemon we have more than one hundred fragments. These Frazer takes up one by one and draws a minute comparison with Pansanias. He concdndes
writings are
that not one fragment supports the theory that Pansanias copied

from Polemon, nor do they justify us even in supposing that he was acquainted with the writings of his learned predecessor. Even more true is this of his relation to the other antiquarians. Another theory of Kalkmann's that obtained some vogue was that our author did not describe Greece as it was in his own time, but as it was a century or two earlier, when his alleged sources were composed. This theory is more susceptible of verification, namely by proving that certain things Pansanias speaks of as existing had ceased to exist before his time. Kalkmann, for example, thus attacks the description of the Piraeus. It had been burnt in 8(3 n.c. and was in a

Pentheus by the Maenads for his insolence to Dionysus is the theme of tlie Bacchae of Euripides. It is frequently represented on vase-paintings and sculptured reliefs. Various stories are told as to the punishment of Lycurgus, king oi the Edonians in Thrace. IIomer (II. Z, 130) says he was blinded by Zeus and died soon after according to others Dionysus himself blinded and crucified him (Diod. 3, (i5), or exposed him to panthers (Hyg. Fab. 132)

MANUSCRIPTS

The

text of Paiisanias

It

contains a
is

the author

lias been liaiided down to us in wretched condinumber of bad faults and a great many lacunae for which not to blame. The extant manuscripts are without exception

of late date

and were not transcribed by the best copyists. Schubart,

to

whom we

are indebted for the first careful collation of the manuscripts,

has shown that they go back to one archetype, but that there already
existed in the archetype a raria
Jfctio,

introduced above the lines and on

the margin, so that the copyists had really two recensions to choose from.

In some instances they preferred the reading of the text

in otliers they

chose the marginal reading; and at times they even took both, either by
noting the variation on the margin or by embodying the two ideas in the
text.

The manuscripts are more than twenty in number and date chiefly from the loth century. Ilitzig has brought the critical ajij^aratus of the Schubart-Walz edition up to date and has revised the text in the light of
forty years of

modern scholarship.

For a

full

discussion of the

manuprinci-

scripts consult the prefaces of Schubart, Hitzig,

and Spiro.

The

pal

manuscripts are divided by Ilitzig into three classes, in order of


:

According to Thuc. 1, 107, the Athenians began to build the Long Walls to the sea, namely the wall to Phalerum and the wall to Piraeus, about 400 <!.c. The walls were completed within four years, apparently soon after the battle of Oenophyta in 456 B.C. (Thuc. 1, 108 Pint. Cimon, 1:5). Those

Athens were apparently spared. During 394-302 B.C. the Piraeus fortifications and the Long Walls were restored, chiefly under Conon (Xen. Hell. 4, 8, 9-10, Diod. 14, S'>). The Long Walls may have been destroyed again in 256 b.c. by Antigonus when he withdrew his garrison from Athens (Pans. 3, 6, 6) at any rate they were half in ruins in 200 b.c. when Philip V of Macedon attacked Athens (Livy, 31, 26). During this time the city wall had undergone extensive improvements after the battle of Chaeronea, 338 b.c. (Aeschin. 3, 27, 31 Liban. ad Dem. 30, 221, 1), and had been restored, according to inscriptions, under Habron, the son of Lycurgus, in 307/306 B.C. (C.I. A. 11. 167), and under Euryclides and Micion (C.I.A. II, 379). The final ruin occurred when Sulla in 87-86 b.c assailed Athens. He razed the fortifications of the Piraeus and burnt the arsenal and the docks lie utilized w hat was left of the Long Walls in building the mound against the city close to the Dipylum and he destroyed the city wall from the Dipylum to the Piraeus gate (Plut. Sulla, 14 Appian, Mithrid. 41 Strabo, 9, p. 396). Probably from that time the Piraeus fortifications and the Long Walls were a memory only. The extension of the 'city circuit occurred under the Eml>ei-or Hadrian. This enlargement of the city to the south and southeast is confirmed by the inscription on the gate of Hadrian, and by actual remains of the wall, which enable us to tract' its course. The extension measured nearly Ij miles. With the Hadrian Wall, the story of the ancient

The Dipylum was a doidile gate, that is, there was an outer and an inner entrance, separated by an inclosed court about 133 feet long and each of these entrances consists of two gatfes, each about 11 feet wide, hinging on a pillar in the middle.

by towers at intervals of 55 to 66 yards. The mouths of the harbors were contracted by moles which ran out to meet each other and left only a narrow entrance between their extremities. Thus the harbor of Cantharus, which has a mouth 336 yards wide, was protected by moles each 141 yards in length, narrowing the entrance to about 54 yards. As Zea consisted of a circular basin extending inland with a mouth only about 108 yards broad, it needed less elaborate fortifications. Walls ran along the channel leading to the basin on each side,

234

THE ATTICA OF PAUSANIAS

and at the inner end of the channel on either side were towers of solid masonry built out into the water. Munychia, being semi-elliptical in shape, was originally altogether too accessible, and required extensive constructions to convert it into a harbor that was safe in time of war. Its moles have been regarded as the most magnificent specimen of ancient Greek The southern mole built on a reef is fortification that has survived. about 206 yards long the northern mole, resting partly on a spit of land, partly in the sea, is about 31 feet wide and 184 yards long.

and followed the plateau first westward and then northward, connected with the Long Walls, then turned westward across a bight of the harbor, and then followed the rocky promontory of Eetionia southwestward to the sea. Four gates can be distinguished on the landward side, the principal one being just outside the northern Long Wall. The hill of Munychia was from early times the acropolis of Piraeus.
In the latter part of the sixth century a strong fortress was here con-

by the tyrant Ilippias (Arist. Resp. Ath. 38). After the Spartan it was seized by Thrasybulus and his band of patriots who restored the democracy. Demetrius Poliorcetes (294 B.C.) demolished the Munychian fortress, and built a fortress on the Museum hill at Athens. 3. Tliough but scant traces of the Long Walls can now be detected, remains were visible to seventeenth and eighteenth century travelers. In 1676 Wheler noticed the foundations in many places (Journey, p. 420). A century later Stuart (Wachsmuth, Stadt Athen, II, 188) saw remains of the walls 12 feet thick, with square towers at intervals. Leake (I, 295 if.) traced the foundations of the northern Long Wall for a mile and a half, beginning half a mile from the head of the great harbor, and running in the direction of the entrance to the Acropolis. These foundations, 12 feet

thick, consisted of large

quadrangular blocks of stone.

The southern Long

Wall was not so easily traceable, except at its junction with the wall about Munychia, and for half a mile thence toward Athens. See Leake, I, 417 ff. The modern highroad from Athens to Piraeus, constructed in 1835, is largely laid on the foundations of the northern Long Wall (Wachsmuth, II, 188).

Thus the Agora, at first a place of truce-making and of buying and selling, became with the growth of the city the place for law courts, for for in ancient times law and shrines of the gods, for business centres religion and commerce went hand in hand. But as society became more highly organized, the Agora for business would gradually separate from the Agora of iolitics and religion, and thus the territory covered by the various activities of the market-place would gradually spread.

Hence, as law and politics and business demanded greater accommodations, the Areopagus became the ceutre round which the market spread, chiefly round its western slope, until the district lying north and northwest of it was entirely devoted to public buildings.

Of the places on the southern side of the Dromos we hear nothing from Pausanias, but near the end of the Dromos we may with certainty set the Long Colonnade (MaKpa Sroa). This was doubtless the sanie as tlie Sloa Alj)hi(oj)olis, the great grain-hall of Athens. On the Market hill directly behind the Long Colonnade was the Hephaesteum. On the southwest corner of the hill was located the Eurysaceum (C.I. A. IV, 2, 597 d 22), in which the son of Salaminian Ajax was honored. What we know of the territory north and east of the Dromos all arranges itself apparently along the old street extending from the Thriasian
gate.

EXCURSUS

III.

THE ENNEACRUNUS AND NEIGHBORHOOD

ITS

There is great truth in Leake's statement (Topography, p. 45) that " the fountain Enneacrunus is the most important point in Athens for the
elucidation of the topography of Pausanias."

The

discussion that has cen-

by Pausanias in 1, 14, 1, has involved many other important monuments and has occasioned so much debate that the so-called " Enneacrunus Episode " has called forth a vast amount of literature and a coimtless mimber of divergent views from classical scholars and archaeologists.

some reason inserted here out of the t()pograj)hical order. Various tlieories are propounded to justify the break in the narrative. 2. Wachsmuth, Frazer, and others who agree with Leake as to the jiositioji of the Enneacrunus, but who cannot accept so great a deviation from the topographical order in Pausanias's description, think that Pausanias must have seen or been shown .some other spring close to the end of the Agora, which he mistook for Enneacrunus.
3.

Dr. Diirpfeld, on the contrary, both insists on

the topographical order, and takes the testimonies of Thucydides and

Pausanias as evidence of the presence of the fountain called Enneacru-

nus within the limits of the Agora, adjacent to the Pnyx hill. Proving his faith by his works, he made excavations to find it, and in so doing he
has not only discovered what he believes to be the fountain Callirrhoe-

Enneacrunus, but has also demonstrated the ancient .system of water-works

Pisistratus.

Others located it in the Ilissus neighborhood or outside the city. Dr. Dorpfeld, on the contrary, is firmly convinced that he has excavated its site and determined the authenticity of it in the territory excavated by the German school, between the Areopagus, Pnyx, and Acro^xilis.

considerable accuracy the historical development and the construction of


all Greek theatres. For our knowledge of the theatre most largely indebted to Dr. Doipfeld. Of all ancient theatres, the Dionysiac theatre at Athens has had the most continuous history, going back almost to the very V>eginning of drama, and continuing in use until late Roman times. We shall, iliercfore, first notice the most important stages in its development, so that in studying its architectural remains we may be prepared to attribute to the different periods what properly belongs to each. In the sixth century n.c, at the dawn of Athenian drama, there was in the sacred precinct on the southeastern slope of the Acropolis a circular dancing-place, or orchestra, consisting of beaten earth surrounded by a ring of stones, used for the chorus of the wine-god. Within the circle was an altar on the jilatform of which stood the coryphaeus or leader of the chorus. All arrangements for spectators or performers were of a purely

provisional character.

In the following century,

when dramatic

art reached its

acme under

Aeschylus, Sophocles, J>uripides, and Aristophanes, the theatre also under-

went great development and reached the form which obtained in its main features during its subsequent history. According to a statement made by Suidas (s.v. H/auTiVas) the first permanent theatre was erected in consequence of an accident which occurred in 01. 70 (.")00-497 h.c). Aeschylus, Pratinas, and Choerilus were contending for the tragic prize, when the wooden benches (iKpia) on which the spectators were seated collapsed. This led the Athenians to build a more substantial theatre.
Dr. Dorpfeld
is

of the opinion that this earliest theatron consisted of

a massive retaining- wall of stone and earth to support wooden seats, as

we have no evidence of the existence of stone theatre. In digging down into the foundations

jiortico.

Yet the rear wall stops not opposite the northwest anta, but the third column, thus leaving the anta stranded. This is evidence that the architect has made a change in his plans, and Di-. Dorpfeld has endeavored to recover the original design by a study of the architectural details, especially the antae. His conclusion is that Mnesicles contemplated for the southwest wing a structure of the same dimensions as the opposite wing, but with this difference the chamber with its portico was to be entirely open to the west facing the Nike temple, and instead of a wall as in the northwest wing, four columns between two antae should face west. The difference of plan was due to the fact that the Pinacotheca abutted on a precipice, while the southwest wing could serve as a colonnade before the Nike temple. Besides the two western wings Dr. Dorpfeld has shown from a study of architectural details tl-Ait the original ])lan ])ro\ided also for two eastern wings. Thus, the anta at the northeast corner of the east portico is double, thus calling for a row of columns running north, as well as the extant I'ow running south. The eastern wall of the northwest wing juts beyond the rest of the building. If continued to the Acropolis wall it would furnish
:

the western wall of the northeast colonnade.


Similar arguments prove that a colonnade of like dimensions was projected as the southeast

wing

of the Propylaea.

But these great ideas were

never carried out, most likely on account of the outbreak of the Peloponnesian

War, and the consecpieut lack

of funds.

marble between the triglyphs running

round the building above the architrave. In the Parthenon all the ninetytwo metopes were adorned with sculptures in high relief, rej^resenting usually single combats. The subject on the metopes of the east front is generally taken to be contests of Gods and Giants, on the west of Greeks and Amazons. The metopes on the south side had suffered comparatively little when Carrey drew them in 1674, and fifteen of the best of these are among the Elgin marbles. The metopes toward each end represented Lapiths and Centaurs, engaged in the struggle that ensued at the marriage feast of Pirithous, while the metopes in the middle of the series contained figures' of stately women.

THE ERECHTHEUM
as the

Erechtheum

is

situated on the

northern side of the Acropolis, not far from the wall, in a slight depres-

way between the east and west ends. As we observe from the study of the ground plan, the form of the Erechtheum is unique. The main structure is a quadrangular edifice 65|
feet long

and 37

feet wide, resting

on a basis of three

steps.

This main

building has three vestibules (wpocrTdaw;), on the east, north, and south,

forming entrances to the temple. As the temple was on a slope, the stereobate of the north and west sides is about 9 feet lower than that of the south

Such was the construction of the Erechtheum as it was left unfinished by its architect, and as it exists to-day. Its plan has puzzled ai'chaeologjsts and architects of every period, for it is obviously anomalous. As in the case of the Propylaea, so in the case of the Erechtheum, it has been Dr. Dorpfeld's ^ good fortune to reconstruct the complete design as it was probably conceived in the mind of its architect.

The middle chamber

approached by two porticoes

the well-known northwest porch and

the caryatid porch to the south.

Thus the temple is given a symmetrical though somewhat complex form. The complexity of form was occasioned by the fact that the temple was designed to replace both the Old Athena Temple and the old tmple
of Erechtheus with its manifold uses.

Dr. Dorpfeld believes he has found

traces of the old Poseidon-Erechtheus temple running diagonally under

new Erechtheum. The remains of the Old Athena Temple just to the south are well known. In supplanting the earlier temples by a common sanctuary Pericles planned that the east cella of the Old Athena Temple should be replaced by the east cella of the combined structure, and the opisthodomos of the old temple by the opistliodomos of the new. The old Erechtheum was reproduced in the building with three chambers, between the two parts of the structure, that took the place of the Old Athena Temple. The two porches to the north and south formed entrances to the Erechtheum proper, and at the same time gave suitable recognition to the mark of Poseidon's trident and the grave of Cecrops. The sublime conception of the architect was not to be carried out. The new temple was doubtless begun before the outbreak of the Peloponnesian War. When it was found to be impossible to carry out the plan in its two entirety a compromise was effected. The east cella was completed of the three chambers of the middle building were finished with the one to the west slightly reduced in size, and the western wall with its windows between engaged columns was given the form with which we are

At the east w! have a rather narrow portico leading into the cella of the temple which is nearly square (33^ ft. x 33 ft.); at the west, behind the portico, there is a somewhat larger chamber (38.3 ft. x 33 ft.) which contains two smaller rooms to the east, lying north and south of each other. The partition wall between the cella and the west chamber was without a door, suggesting that the former was for religious, the latter for secular purposes. From a
study of the remains

evident that

six columns at each end and twelve at each making it a hexastyle peripteral temple. Owing to its length the sanctuary was known as the Hekatompedon. The foundation walls of the temple are not all of the same material. The foundations of the colonnade, including the stylobate, are of limestone from Kar.l at the foot of Mount Hymettus those of the teinple propel', of the bluish limestone of the Acropolis. The remains of columns, architrave blocks, and triglyphs are of poros the metopes and pediment blocks are of a white coarse-grained marble. There are similar differences
