Athenians built a temple for Agnostos Theos, or the Unknown God, who represented all the deities whose names were lost or never known. Offerings made here aimed to prevent these forgotten beings from becoming upset at their neglect.

Did you know that in 492 B.C. the ancient poet Frynichus was sentenced by the Athenian court for his tragedy: "Miletus Falling", with the penalty of 1000 drachmas, because it reminded the Athenians the terrible desaster of Miletus by the Persians, which had made them very sad?
Approximately one month after the Persian victory at Thermopylae in August 480 BC, the Greek fleet led by the Athenian commander, Themistocles engaged the Persian armada at Salamis (near Athens).
