Hey Dimitris, looks a bit like northern Greece ?

Hello Peter, It is part of mount Taygetus, a mountain range in Peloponnese  peninsula near Sparti..

Thank you, Dimitris. So, this is near by your homeland. Beautiful scenes in the film. A lovely wilderness. I like such areas. I´m sure not a city boy...  ;)

(Well and it´s in Southern Greece i know now !)

I suppose if Lacedaemon were to become desolate, and the temples and the foundations of the public buildings were left, that as time went on there would be a strong disposition with posterity to refuse to accept her fame as a true exponent of her power. And yet they occupy two-fifths of Peloponnese and lead the whole, not to speak of their numerous allies without. Still, as the city is neither built in a compact form nor adorned with magnificent temples and public edifices, but composed of villages after the old fashion of Hellas, there would be an impression of inadequacy. Whereas, if Athens were to suffer the same misfortune, I suppose that any inference from the appearance presented to the eye would make her power to have been twice as great as it is. Thucydides 1.9

From a real historian! Thanks.

Thucydides was as “real” as an historian can possibly get: completely unsentimental and unerringly correct in fact and interpretation. The model for an historian until Marx and the 20th century focus on social history.  We might call him the Leica of historians 😀
