“Romas”
Ancient Greece was the cradle of Western Civilizations. Many people in Ancient Greece made contributions to art, philosophy, science, medicine, math, history, etc. that we still study and use today, more than 2,500 years later!
Now-a-days we honor famous athletes with the ultimate honor,
placing their face on a “Wheaties” Box. However, despite those little temples and statues, no such honor was placed on the true heavyweights of Ancient Greece, Olympian Gods. So it is up to us.
