Historical past of Sounio

The temple of Sounion sits above the beach on a mountain that juts out into the sea and was dedicated to Poseidon. In ancient occasions the temple was the very last indication of civilization the Athenians observed as they sailed absent from home and the 1st as they returned and even now when I sail to the islands on the ferry it is not until we pass the temple that I am 'officially' out of Athens. The choice of this spot was a good one. It is tough to imagine a a lot more ideal setting for an ancient temple, in specific one devoted to the god of the sea.
