Friday, 25 May 2012. Once, the city was divided into two parts, the Athenians and the Metics. In the past, the Metics came with their craft skills.

everywhere and nowhere: The Journey of a Metic and the Observing Athenian

Saturday, 16 June 2012. The Journey of a Metic and the Observing Athenian. Since ancient history, Athenians believed in their "right of blood".
