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> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/56321512@N03/">Bernard Zalm</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/56321512@N03/55544968874/" title="View on Lindos from the Acropolis"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55544968874_d4ce75fb8c_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="View on Lindos from the Acropolis" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/56321512@N03/">Bernard Zalm</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/56321512@N03/55544954109/" title="Acropolis of Lindos, Rhodes, Greece"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55544954109_ece5c0a966_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="Acropolis of Lindos, Rhodes, Greece" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/136257077@N03/">spencer_wilmot</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/136257077@N03/55545168995/" title="YR-HLA Boeing 737-8HC Hello Jets"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55545168995_3197010a29_m.jpg" width="240" height="135" alt="YR-HLA Boeing 737-8HC Hello Jets" /></a></p> <p>Rhodes Diagoras (RHO / LGRP), Greece.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/56321512@N03/">Bernard Zalm</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/56321512@N03/55544961809/" title="Acropolis of Lindos, Rhodes, Greece"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55544961809_1f13d206cf_m.jpg" width="180" height="240" alt="Acropolis of Lindos, Rhodes, Greece" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/56321512@N03/">Bernard Zalm</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/56321512@N03/55544950404/" title="Acropolis of Lindos, Rhodes, Greece"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55544950404_4c1aaa19f2_m.jpg" width="180" height="240" alt="Acropolis of Lindos, Rhodes, Greece" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/122473678@N03/">5B-DUS</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/122473678@N03/55545067280/" title="LN-STB - Sundt Air - Bombardier Challenger 350"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55545067280_b063b9df9a_m.jpg" width="240" height="162" alt="LN-STB - Sundt Air - Bombardier Challenger 350" /></a></p> <p>September 2026 - [CFU/LGKR] Corfu / Kerkyra - Ioannis Kapodistrias Airport<br /> <br /> &quot;MIDNIGHT 5&quot;

They stand very close together, which is unusual, and the only explanation put forward for this is that they were shared by members of the same family.<br /> <br /> The River Lilas flows nearby; it is said that, in addition to their defensive purpose, the towers also controlled the river’s flow in order to improve the water supply to Chalkis and the fertile plain. It is likely that, in 1429, one of the twin towers was inhabited by the ‘river master’, an official who oversaw the flow of the water.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/orangusac/">orangusac</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/orangusac/55543842483/" title="Matala, Crete"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55543842483_79b8f64704_m.jpg" width="240" height="161" alt="Matala, Crete" /></a></p> <p>Dusk and goats in Matala</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/oddlegs/">oddlegs</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/oddlegs/55542659622/" title="IMG_3010"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55542659622_63a840d1f5_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="IMG_3010" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/12326606@N03/">FotoShipshuck</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/12326606@N03/55543728220/" title="Agios Nikolaos Church"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55543728220_09687b2b6a_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="Agios Nikolaos Church" /></a></p> <p>Greece 2026<br /> To Naxos</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/12326606@N03/">FotoShipshuck</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/12326606@N03/55542314457/" title="Three Ducks of St. George"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55542314457_3808f086c8_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="Three Ducks of St. George" /></a></p> <p>Greece 2026<br /> To Naxos: Agios Georgios Beach</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/beginnersmindphotography/">santoshpandipati</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/beginnersmindphotography/55543705295/" title="Evening walk"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55543705295_6bb7487729_m.jpg" width="194" height="240" alt="Evening walk" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/127261365@N02/">bgd.boban</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/127261365@N02/55543011818/" title="Ostrvo kornjača (Turtle island) Neos Marmaras"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55543011818_ca9a048960_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="Ostrvo kornjača (Turtle island) Neos Marmaras" /></a></p>
