Summary

Description
English: Plan of the Acropolis of Athens, showing areas excavated by Panagiotis Kavvadias and Georg Kawerau between 1885 and 1890. Monuments marked in red were first discovered during these excavations. Boundaries between zones are approximate: in particular, I am very unsure as to whether the date of discovery of the Temple of Roma and Augustus was 1886 or 1887.

Numbered monuments:

1. Beulé Gate 2. Proplylaia 3. Mycenaean ('Cyclopaean') wall 4. Brauroneion 5. So-called Arrhephoreion 6. Chalkotheke 7. 'Kore Pit' (location approximate) 8. Archaios Naos or 'Old Temple of Athena' 9. Parthenon 10. Erechtheion 11. Temple of Roma and Augustus 12. Belvedere Tower 13. Sanctuary of Pandion
