Chaos in Greek Mythology
In Greek mythology, "Chaos" refers to the void state preceding the creation of the universe or cosmos. It's a term that represents the initial formlessness, a vast, dark, indefinite space or abyss from which the first entities appeared. The concept of Chaos can be found in ancient Greek literature, notably in Hesiod's "Theogony," which describes the genealogy and origins of the gods.

Athenian Acropolis
Ascending the Acropolis is a breathtaking experience. Unless you are in shape, you really do feel breathless. At first you feel excited, and maybe walk too quickly. By the halfway mark, the calves tighten and breathing becomes heavy.
