A School Dictionary of Greek Roman Antiquities (Classic Reprint)1kg Limited, 23. mars 2018 - 488 sider Excerpt from A School Dictionary of Greek Roman Antiquities Acropolis (mm). In almost all Greek states, which were usually built upon a hill, rock, or some natural elevation, there was a castle or a citadel, erected upon the highest part of the rock or hill, to which the name of Acropolis, higher or upper city, was given. Thus we read of an acropolis at Athens, Corinth, Argos, Messene, and My other places. The Capitolium at Rome eu swered the same purpose as the Acropolis in the Greek cities; and of the same kind were the tower of Agathocles at Utica, and that of Antonia at Jerusalem.
