I am doing a paper on the difference between religion between Athens in the 5th century and Florence in the 15th century. I know that gods were really important but I need more details about Athens’ religion in this century.

I know that now we calll it BC, for instance BC 431. But what was the reference before Jesus came, because at that time they obviously had no idea that he would be born on the Earth 431 years later. Does anyone know how they counted years?

saphira_xxx asked:


Also, what time period would ancient Greece be associated with? Does it include the Classical period? the Hellenistic period?

And it would really help if someone could clearly explain the Greeks’ relationship with their Gods.

If anyone knows of any good books about Greek religion that would help me for the report I am writing, than please let me know. Particularly if you know any on Questia.com. Thanks.

Do libs ALWAYS have to revise history to fit their own problems with people?Ever since 9/11 they’ve been saying Pearl Harbor was an inside job too to show”the utter death and destruction that comes as a result of neo-cons”.They called FDR a neo-con.And now to make redneck fundamentalists angry they’re calling Jesus a liberal activist.When will it end?
Should we get a WW2 veteran to slap them?
