At The Ruins of The Cidatel



As i wrote in a previous related post (see at the end of this entry), Akraifnion is a really old location. Its roots goes back in the era of Classical Hellas and maybe even earlier. However from what we know, its cultural peak was around the times of Theban hegemony, when this archaic city-state ruling with a militant iron arm huge parts of South Hellas. So for a place like Akraifnio, its quite natural, to have an Acropolis. A cidatel that from there an eye will have to watch the whole area which is full of mountains, lakes and rivers. The photos you see here (taken as usual by Hjarulv) are from the ancient ruins of this cidatel.
