The fifth century BC temple…
The fifth century BC temple of the Parthenon, on the Acropolis, appears distorted in the heat of the Olympic Flame burning yesterday outside the Panathenaic Stadium. The flame, lit in Ancient Olympia on March 25, arrived in the capital on Wednesday after touring the Peloponnese. It will stay in Athens, under constant police guard, until June 3, after which it will travel around the world before returning for the Games’ opening ceremony.
