The author of this booklet shows where and how the major Olympian gods were worshipped, and then turns his attention to lesser known deities, such as Hekate, the triple-bodied goddess of the crossroads. He argues that the cults of heroes, such as Theseus, one of the legendary founders of Athens, were much more popular than the official state religion focused on the Olympian gods.","","Agora:Publication:Agora Picture Book 19","Agora","Agora:Image:2009.09.0022::/Agora/2009/2009.09/2009.09.0022.jpg::200::311","The American School of Classical Studies at Athens","","","Camp, J.","1980","Publication","Gods and Heroes in the Athenian Agora" "AgoraPicBk 23 (1994)","","Athens was a famously litigious city in antiquity, as the sheer quantity of evidence for legal activity found in the Agora makes clear. Every kind of case, from assault and battery to murder, and from small debts to contested fortunes, were heard in various buildings and spaces around the civic center, and the speeches given in defence and prosecution remain some of the masterpieces of Greek literature. As well as describing the spaces where judgments were made (such as the Stoa Basileios, office of the King Archon), the author discusses the progress of some famous cases (known from the speeches of orators like Demosthenes), such as the patrimony suit of a woman named Plangon against the nobleman Mantias, or the assault charge leveled by Ariston against Konon and his sons.","","Agora:Publication:Agora Picture Book 23","Agora","Agora:Image:2009.09.0026::/Agora/2009/2009.09/2009.09.0026.jpg::200::314","The American School of Classical Studies at Athens","","","Lang, M.","1994","Publication","Life, Death, and Litigation in the Athenian Agora"
