What to see at the National Archaeological Museum of Athens | NAMA | Athens Greece

[@dennisdrayna9383]

With so much to see in this museum, it's nice to see a personal list of some of the best. The list omitted a few of my favorites, but it provides helpful context for many great masterpieces. Apparently many visitors don't bother to go up to the second floor, and the last time I was there the docents actively encouraging people to do this. Those who don't miss some truly amazing objects. In my opinion, Egyptian National Museum has quantity and the Vatican has diversity, but the Athens National Museum has quality.

This museum is on my bucket list

[@DHHoover]

My husband and I were there many years ago. Thank you for refreshing my memory. It is so nice to have the explanation too.

[@pedrocarvalho6492]

Wow! Art at its best.

[@GreatCityAttractions]

Agreed - some wonderful things to see in Athens.

[@bradleyeric14]

I like most the room with the geometric pottery where the Dipylon Amphora sits.

[@soulseller1838]

What a brilliant video, thank you

[@GreatCityAttractions]

Agreed - some amazing sights.

[@ioanniskomitas6196]

One of the best museums in the world. If you had to choose (you shouldn’t) between the Akropolis museum and this, you should first visit thelis one. What gets me is the every day itens. The pottery collection puts modern day kitchen pots to shame. The toys that have lasted for thousands of years, the jewellery and ornamental items that look timeless, the Cycladic idols that capture the essence of human form so much so that iPhone cameras recognise them as human faces…! Of the more grand exhibits the horse literally stops your heart when you first see it. Every visit to this museum is a humbling experience.

Well done! I like your commentary.

[@technics291]

[@MilledSteel]

[@MarkProjMgr]

Nice presentation

[@magicmagic5913]

GOOD VINTEO FROM GREECE

[@grumpyoldman8661]

Excellent video, and (on a minor note) I was pleased of the dating usage of 'BC', instead of the clumsy and unnecessary 'BCE'. (UK)

[@amauricampos5433]

Linda imagem eu amo na alma espiritual.Parabéns!

[@adamakaru2683]

Big WOW I love Greece, Greek people and the great culture; For all the time I have spent in Greece, I never stop love it. Ps, nothing is ancient after Greece, (no Rome is NOT ancient) thank you.

[@EZEQUIELGOMEZ-oc5mu]

Hermoso full of art of long ago.....

[@danfobb8301]

Very nice

[@markmelville4809]

Is it possible to get the list written out so we can take it with us if we visit?

[@albertsonntag754]

Excellent review and film, but I would have included the bronze Marathon boy in the Praxitelean style.

[@agobeth]

What abouts the weapons that killed King Leonidas?

[@resonant_theories]

i think your estimation on Zeus is correct.. it appears an eagle is missing from his left hand.

[@manuelpousa6533]

Gaul from France? Its a Galatian from Anatholia

[@SuperLightningStarOfficial]

What about the Spartans

[@eleniasimop]

There is a little archeological museum in Sparta.

[@Willem07]

I am doubting about this and the acropolis museum

[@eleniasimop]

This is much bigger and the artifacts are more impressive and diverse. I recommend it.

[@GuyCruls]

the epinetron shows a scene of women busying themselves in the run-up of a marriage, I think: the two lebes gamikos and the loutrophoros are dead giveaways. this suggests the epinetron might have been a marriage present.

[@craigster1244]

Team Zeus w/o doubt.

[@charlesfenwick6554]

Date much too late. ca. 460 B.C. is the generally accepted date and is classified to be in the Severe Style.

[@bluedrops8149]

Some figures are nude. Shouldn't it be age restricted and be banned as per KZbin guidelines ?

[@parkex]

Lol. My kids Greek school has the same statues in the entrance. Same at the Greek consulate.

[@eleniasimop]

It's ancient Greek art. We had the images of all these "nude" statues in our school books in third grade. There are statues like these in most city squares around all of Greece and most of Europe. The paintings in the Louvre are also "nude". If you are so sensitive lock your children at home without TV and internet.

That’s haram guys

[@eleniasimop]

It's a different civilization than yours which consider the perfection of human body an hymn to God. They believed that remaining healthy and good looking was something Gods were asking of them that's Why they were proud about it and wanted to show it.
