Today in History (21 July (356 BCE)

Post by Will Williams » Wed Jul 31, 2024 12:37 pm

I was sorry to see that the Today in History feature from National Vanguard for 21 July had not been posted to WB, but got Kevin to send me the text from it about the smashing of the Greek temples in Ephesus, Anatolia by the Christians.

Lana, my Aryan legal immigrant bride, and I met in Turkey in 2004 while waiting for permission for her to come from Russia to the U.S. as my wife. While there we took a side excursion and wandered through the numerous ancient Greek and Roman ruins in Ephesus. I was fascinated by the number of carved swastika architectural details we saw among the ruins and photographed them, wondering if the Greeks or Romans realized at the time that they had been carving "hate symbols."? :roll:

Doubtful. It took Jews many centuries later to educate everyone about their most hated symbol of hate.

356 BCE: The extraordinarily beautiful Temple of Artemis built by the Greeks in Ephesus, Anatolia is burned down by a man reputedly of low birth, seeking fame for his act of destruction. The temple was then rebuilt, even larger (more than 450 feet long) and more beautiful than before, so much so that it was declared one of the Seven Wonders of the World. It contained sculptures and other works of art by Rhoecus, Polyclitus, Phidias, Cresilas, and Phradmon. It stood for more than 600 years, until it was closed and then destroyed by Christians, who also pulled down the ancient statues and erased the name Artemis from every sign and building in the city. Some columns from the temple were used in the construction of the Hagia Sophia in Constantinople.
