Pniks
- Pnyx I: Probably constructed in the early 5th century B.C.. The people apparently sat on the hillside facing a speaker's platform on the north.
- Me and my wife have visited Athens 2 times already, seen all major sites, yet we did not know about Pnyx, and it is located right opposite Acropolis!
- With the passage of time, the original foundation of Pnyx changed, with the reversal of the spectator seats and the speaker’s area.
- For the Pnyx was the meeting place of the world's first democratic legislature, the Athenian ekklesia (assembly), and the flat stone is the bema or speaker's platform.
- We visited the Pnyx in December under magnificent sunshine. We started the walk at the ancient agora, then we passed in front of the Athens observatory.
- Idling Athenians were called to the assembly by public slaves who stretched a braided rope covered in red paint to guide them to the Pnyx.
- Τhere is a great number of fantastic places to chill near the Acropolis, but surprisingly, Pnyx (or Pnyka) is one of the less visited ones...
