"Since the eighth century B.C., the fortified area known as the Acropolis has been sacred to Grecian culture. It is the site of several monuments, including the Parthenon, a temple dedicated to the goddess Athena. The marble temples are considered masterpieces of ancient Greek architecture and tributes to gods worshiped long ago."
