Description
The Parthenon is an ancient Greek temple in the Acropolis of Athens. This grand temple was once filled with statues and other works of art, but centuries of war, weather, and natural disasters have taken a large toll on the Parthenon. Many of the statues that once stood in the Parthenon are now in the museums of European cities--notably the British Museum in London, England. How did the statues get there, and what's being done to return them to their rightful home? Readers will explore the answers, as well as the colorful history of the Parthenon itself.
