Excerpt from The Acropolis of Athens

In order to get a connected general survey Of the Acropolis as it appeared in ancient days, and to enable the reader to refer readily to the statements therein contained, I have included in Appendix I. The description given by the old traveller Pausanias. The translation of his description is taken, by permission, from the monumental work of Professor J. G. Frazer, to whom I am deeply indebted not only for this courtesy, but also for the valuable material freely borrowed from the work to which reference has been made.
