<p>Hirundo rustica, the Barn Swallow, is a widespread migratory passerine belonging to the swallow family (Hirundinidae) — the most widely distributed swallow species in the world — readily recognized by its slender shape, long pointed wings, and deeply forked tail. Its upperparts are dark blue to blue-black with a metallic sheen, while the forehead, chin, and throat are reddish-brown to chestnut. A dark blue band crosses the upper breast, separating the throat from the whitish-to-buff underparts. The elongated outer tail feathers form the characteristic streamers, which are generally longer in adult males than in females. White spots on the tail are visible when it is spread. Adults typically measure 15–19 cm in length, with a wingspan of about 32–34.5 cm and a weight of 16–25 grams.<br />
<br />
The Barn Swallow is an aerial insectivore, capturing flying insects in agile, highly maneuverable flight, often close to the ground or water. It commonly forages over open habitats such as agricultural fields, meadows, grasslands, wetlands, and the margins of lakes and other water bodies. Its diet consists mainly of flies, but also includes beetles, bees, wasps, ants, and occasionally butterflies and moths. The species is closely associated with human settlements and frequently uses buildings and other structures for nesting, building an open cup-shaped nest of mud mixed with plant material, usually beneath eaves, rafters, barns, sheds, or bridges.<br />
<br />
Hirundo rustica breeds across large parts of Europe, Asia, North America, and northern Africa. Many populations migrate south after the breeding season to wintering areas in tropical and subtropical regions; European populations generally migrate southward in autumn, with many reaching sub-Saharan Africa. Outside the breeding season it can become highly gregarious, gathering in large communal roosts. The species is classified as Least Concern by the IUCN.<br />

<br />
Marathon is a town with a population of around 30,000 and was the site of the Battle of Marathon in 490 BC, in which the outnumbered Athenian army, led by the general Miltiades, defeated the Persians.<br />
<br />
The Battle of Marathon is shrouded in the legend of the messenger Pheidippides. He is said to have carried the news of the victory from the battlefield to Athens, some 40 km away, and to have died of exhaustion after delivering the message. As Plutarch, who lived over 500 years after the battle, was the first to recount the story, it must be regarded as Attic propaganda.<br />
<br />
<br />
The Archeological Museum of Marathon exhibits art and artifacts from various excavation sites in the vicinity.<br />
<br />
The area has been continually inhabited since the Stone Age so a plethora of artifacts from that era all the way to the Roman period can be seen in its halls.</p>
