Comprising several city-states and colonies united
by a common language and culture (and periodically
by formal alliance), ancient Greece held considerable
sway even before Alexander the Great conquered most
of the known world; its influence continues to this
day. From the Greeks we have inherited many of our
fundamental ideas about art, architecture, literature,
government, and law. This book of postcards spotlights
some of the achievements that distinguish ancient
Greece as the cradle of Western civilization. From
the unparalleled collections of The British Museum,
home to the renowned Elgin Marbles and other rare
antiquities, the thirty objects reproduced here include
pottery vessels, bronze and marble sculpture, armour,
coins, and other artifacts. Together, they illustrate
the development and flowering of classical Greek culture.
