2) For the second time, the author mentions the city’s shoreline. The first time was when Medusa and Apollonia were walking up to the Acropolis, looking out to the sea. THERE IS NO SEA in Athens. The closest sea is in Piraeus, which these days back then (and even now) is considered another town, connected to Athens through a long road, several km away (about 18-20). Has the author ever even seen a MAP of Athens?
