ATHENS — Practitioners of the ancient Greek religion gathered among the ruined temples at the Acropolis Sunday, praying to Athena to stop the removal of sculptures and pieces of the temples to museums.
Participants claimed it was the first such gathering since the ancient religion was officially abolished late in the 4th century.
"We believe that the structural elements of a temple should not be moved and we worry about the consequences," said high priestess Doretta Peppa.
