Ancient Greeks were great, and then lost their civilization like America is losing it today. The Greeks are a guide to freedom, philosophy, theater, rhetoric, history, architecture, and more. Thumbnail painting is Antigone's burial of her brother Polynices [which was in defiance of King Creon, who said Polynices should be left to rot unburied]. Antigone told King Creon, that the law of the gods is above the law of man. (painting by Sebastien Norblin, 1825).
