Once a Rural Theater Sections of an ancient Greek theater are seen in the northwestern Athens suburb of Menidi. Until now, only two such buildings were known in the ancient city where western theater originated more than 2,500 years ago. Menidi is thought to be built over the ancient village of Acharnae, the largest of a string of rural settlements outside ancient Athens. -- AP Photo/Thanassis Stavrakis

I'd whipped up the next Digest, figuring it would be all but ready, and not expecting to take the time to post anything else; then Blam posted that topic about the origin of capsicum, so it seemed appropriate to add one more. :')

To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list. Thanks.
Please FREEPMAIL me if you want on or off the

I'm still waiting for them to dig up Pompeii's theater in Rome. I was there last year and believed I stayed right over the area where Caesar should have been aerated.
