'A Morning at the Pnyx'

"It's assemble day, the morning is here, and there's no one at the Pnyx. They're chatting up and down the Agora, scurrying to dodge the vermillion-dyed cord....

I'm here, thoroughly prepared to raise hell, wrangle and interrupt the speakers."

Dikapolis in Aritophanes Acharnians * 19ff

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Pnyx was probable chosen for the assembly as the concave hillside made a natural amphitheatre
