Greek myths are stories of gods, goddesses, heroes and beasts that performed amazing feats. For example, when Zeus, god of all Olympians, complained of a headache, Hephaestus hit him on the head with an axe. Emerging from the wound was Athena, who became the goddess of war and was thought to have guided many Greeks to victory during battle. What do Ajax, Atlas, Nike and Pluto have in common?

Background Documents Dakar Framework for Action FAQ ... Civil Society Knowledge Sharing Grassroots stories Education Still Pipedream for Gypsies in Greece By Wes Jonasson Inter Press Service ATHENS, Mar 24 (IPS) - Two women sit on a bench outside an Orthodox Church, their children running around them, in the Agi Varvara neighbourhood of Piraeus, close to the Greek capital. The women are Greek Gypsy, or Roma. They are in all likelihood illiterate and likely to remain that way for the rest of their lives. What this means is that should their children beat the odds and enter the school system, the mothers will be unable to help with the homework. Agia Varvara is the most affluent Gypsy community in Greece, yet not one Gypsy woman here is on record as having completed secondary school. Paula Karadana, who instructs volunteers on how to teach the Greek language to Gypsies, is critical of the failure of the government to make education more accessible to the community. She says that while there has been some talk of this issue, nothing has materialised. In the early 1980's Karadana worked with volunteers to establish a social centre for minorities including Gypsies in the inner-city slum of Metaxoyrgeio. A new building replaced the old only last year.

Ancient Greek Education The Greek Gods were much more down-to-earth and much less awesome than the remote gods of the East. Because they were endowed with human qualities and often represented aspects of the physical worldsuch as the sun, the moon, and the seathey were closer to man and to the world he lived in. The Greeks, therefore, could find spiritual satisfaction in the ordinary, everyday world. They could develop a secular life free from the domination of a priesthood that exacted homage to gods remote from everyday life. The goal of education in the Greek city-states was to prepare the child for adult activities as a citizen. The nature of the city-states varied greatly, and this was also true of the education they considered appropriate. Both daily life and education were very different in Sparta, than in Athens or in the other ancient Greek city-states. With the exception of the Athenians (who thought Athens was the best!), Greeks from other city-states had a grudging admiration for the Spartans. They wouldn't want to be Spartans, but in times of war, they most certainly wanted Sparta to be on their side. The Spartans were tough, and the ancient Greeks admired strength.

Briefing Imagine this: You're a construction worker digging a hole in the ground for a new subway system, when you suddenly come across a gorgeous painted bowl, the likes of which you have never seen. What would you think? Would you take it home for your mantelpiece or alert the media? What's a bowl doing down there, anyway? Something similar happened nine years ago in Athens, Greece . While digging a new subway system, construction workers found 2,500-year-old artifacts and artworks. As they dug, they uncovered ancient roads, shops, baths, and water systems, as well as carved bowls and other precious items. Read more about Athens's "Metro Museum."
