Anthony Ayiomamitis, our photographer/astronomer friend in Athens,
writes that last night was a “Marvelous opportunity to observe and image
the rising full moon (99.7% phase) last night against the Propylaea and
which introduce the Temple of Poseidon Erechtheus at the Acropolis of
Athens. The Erechtheum (421-407 BC) is perhaps best known for the
stunning Caryatids made of pentelic marble and which adorn the southern
side of the structure. The opposite side of the Erechtheum is dedicated
to the (Acropolis) gods Poseidon and Erechtheus and who battled
unsuccessfully against Athena for the right to protect and be the
patrons of the city of Athens.” source
