      Ancient Greece sowed the seeds that blossomed into modern democracy, philosophy, medicine, science, architecture, and theatre.

Trace the Grecian path as it moved out of the Dark Ages and into the golden age of the city-state; as Macedon rose to power and Alexander the Great began his conquests.

Myth, religion, art, words and ideas, and Greece's lingering legacy: these astounding achievements will endlessly enthrall.
