This is, a good video except for the last part.

Reminds me of the Ringling Museum in Florida and seeing the B.C. stuff, 300 B.C. to 2000 B.C.

What was wrong with the last part?

Hugh, help return the marbles of the British museum then

[btfy99]

hi!i live in athens right now and i assure you each time i visit parthenon i have this feeling that i can't describe.i'm proud that our ancestors managed to build this masterpiece to last until now (imagine from the 5th century B.C. until the 21st!we are now in 2007!) the machinery there by the way is for its preservation but i agree that this image does not suit to parthenon!it makes me sad that it's threatened by air pollution

I thought it was very interesting. I dont think you should say that pple should bug off if they dont find it interesting because that would just earn people's disrespect for you. But I love the history of everyone's culture and I respect them too. Am also happy you got your dream. I will go someday too. have a nice day.

Man, you totally deserve getting to visit the Parthenon, I'm very happy for you, hopefully one day I will be able to visit it as well.

Hugh, congrats for your sentiment and video

This is a pure case of buying stolen goods

Buying from the Turkish conqueror was no different than buying from Hitler, French artworks, stolen by Nazis in occupied France

Those artifacts were returned to France, no?

I think that the conservative ruling class of Britain embarrasses its nation and especially the British people who are ethical and respect whats right and most importantly, whose majority wants the return of the stolen artworks

[lastrovi]

They are spending a lot of money,time and people,because they want to make,with the help of modern technology, what the ancient greeks had done in the past...

I respect them,their country,music,people,history ,etc. OO,and JimmyTheGreek2000 is right! Happy for your dream come true...I was there too:X:X:X LONG LIVE GREECE!

[lastrovi]

Hey Hugh!I know the feeling you had when you enter the Propileea, I know how it feels when you are so close to the thing you had wanted to see.... ,but you know,if the Greek State don't make the things that are necessary for the restauration of this Great and Beautiful Piece of Art of The Ancient World( Greece) it will soon be gone forever!!

[JimmyTheGreek2000]

Hugh, What about the Parthenon marbles in the British Museum, When can we have them back?

[0Psithiros]

great video Hugh..feels really good to see that people love to get outside of their "frontiers" and make their dreams true,and also loved how you interacted with this great symbolic monument!!

NA SE KALA FILE MOU(i hope you learned some greek expressions here in athens :D)

many respects and greetings from a Greek friend

I have been fascinated with ancient Greek culture since before my teens.
