Description
The Acropolis served as the "Sacred Rock " of Athens and its Parthenon , built between 447 and 438 BC , remains symbolic of Greek civilization . This view of the Parthenon's Doric columns shows the cranes and scaffolds used to undo earlier ruinous restorations . The exhaust fumes of Athens ' automobiles and busses are rapidly eating away the marble of this and other classical remains .
