Paestum. The Temple of Athena. sent on June 03, 2018 (16:12) by Pinitti. 104 comments, 2356 views.

È l'unico tempio dell'area archeologica di cui si sa con certezza a quale divinità fosse dedicato: Atena, la dea dell'artigianato e della guerra. Posizionato sul punto più alto della città, a nord degli spazi pubblici, il tempio della dea protettrice e guerriera dominava l'area. Già la prima generazione di coloni greci costruì qui un piccolo edificio per la dea (c.d. “oikos”). Intorno al 500 a.C., si realizzò poi il monumentale tempio che si è conservato fino alla cornice del tetto. La parte interna (“cella”), che è elevata rispetto al colonnato circostante, era accessibile attraverso un'ampia anticamera (“pronaos”) decorata con colonne ioniche. Il sito di Paestum è qualcosa di unico e merita davvero di essere visitato, anche per il bel mare nelle vicinanze. Gli altri templi lì presenti sono la “Basilica”, il più antico, è quello di “Nettuno”. Il museo è una meraviglia, da 10 e lode. La tomba del “Tuffatore” su tutti. Andate, gente, andate. Non ve ne pentirete. Ve lo garantisco.

I share the enthusiasm and the judgement that you have expressed for this archaeological site, which is far better preserved than many in the native land of Greece, as well as it also happens for the great Greek temples in Sicily.
The territory of Cilento I am not passionate in the same way, mainly because of the deep deterioration that unfortunately characterizes many areas of our otherwise magnificent Italy.
hope that the future can increase its valorisation ;-)
