Women in traditional dress carried the Greek flag in front of the Parthenon Monday following a ceremony marking the 71st anniversary of the liberation of Athens from the Nazi occupation, which lasted from 1941 to 1944. To commemorate the event, Greek historians organized a historical walk through downtown Athens on Sunday. The walk is one of a series of events scheduled for October.
