Temple of Dionysus (Temple IV)
Yria, Naxos, Greece
580-570 BCE
28,5m x 13,5 m
Ionic order (One of the earliest uses)
Around 580-570 BCE, work began on the fourth and largest temple of Yria, the only one of which remains are visible, and the only one to have been restored. It is an archaic hekatompedon (30 m. long) temple of the Ionic style. It is built of local granο-diorite rock, and it has an Adyton (innermost sanctuary for a mystery cult), marble portico (prostasis) with columns forming a monumental entrance, and a marble altar. Τwο tetrastyle marble colonnades divide the building into three aisles.
The temple is divided into three naves by two rows of four columns of Ionic order, each of which consists of two or three marble drums. The Adyton is separated from the cella by a second monumental gate. The hearth, found inside the temple, was of marble and was used for libations.
Hey guys. Something to share with you potential explorers today :) As you know, all the photos you see on this blog are from the 13 months I spent travelling through Latin America - a truly magical and life affirming journey. If you dream of embarking on your own tour of Latin America and want to know how I travelled for so long on a budget, you’re in luck. I wrote a guide to long term budget travel, which especially applies to South and Central America. You can read it on my blog here: My Ultimate Guide to Long Term Budget Travel Enjoy and buen viaje!

According to Ancient Greek myth, the first spider was a woman named Arachne who bragged she could spin better than the goddesses themselves (which, if you’re not familiar with Ancient Greek culture, is a big no-no). As punishment, she was transformed into the first spider.
Spiders’ class name in taxonomy, Arachnid, is a reference to Arachne.
If you feel like you’ve seen this alread, that’s normal. This list of recommendation has been previously posted on my first account @praestantias which has been deleted for some reasons. So here I am, reposting it.
Hating how elitist and eurocentric the dark academia community became, I would truly appreciate that you leave some recommendation of book written by people of color, for I noticed that I am guilty of the eurocentric part, but I am really want to educate myself and read more non-white books.
Thank you for your suggestions!
