The Athenian acropolis viewed from the Pnyx hill. The  democratic assembly (ekklesia) met on this site on a raised platform that was eventually expanded to include 13,500 people. It is a steep twenty minute hike from the central agora.

 

Books on Athenian democracy have not described the immense scale of this structure. Although the Acropolis draws far more visitors, the Pnyx is one of the world’s most significant sites.
