Monday Sep 02, 2024
Monday Sep 02, 2024
When the Greeks fought for their independence from the Ottoman Turks in 1821, they began the war with a siege of the Acropolis - one of their most revered and historically significant sites. And when the Turks ran out of bullets, they started dismantling the blocks of the Parthenon to make more bullets. In an attempt to save the structure, the Greeks came up with a very unusual idea. In this episode, we talk about this Greek legend, and then speak with Nikki the Death Doula!
