Video: Greece - Isle of Revelation

Summary:

Description: From the majestic Athenian Acropolis to the cloud-shrouded tip of Mount Olympus, Greek ruins dot an epic landscape. Greece was once home to a powerful pantheon of gods, but a new religion, a legacy of the historic visits of the Christian disciples John and Paul, shattered old myths and still shapes the faith of Greece today. © 1997 Discovery Channel School Grades: 9-12   (25 minutes)
