Kerameikos<\/a> extends  to the northwestern edge of Athens.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

It was the most important cemetery of the ancient city, in use from the Prehistoric period to Late Antiquity and at the same time one of the most important centers of pottery and vase painting in the ancient world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Kerameikos, the best-preserved part of the ancient wall of Athens is preserved, along which two of the most monumental gates open, the Dipylon \u2013 the largest gate of the ancient Greek world \u2013 and the Sacred Gate, through which also passed nodal arteries, the Road and the Sacred Way, respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here the Athenian State honored the gods with ritual processions, such as the Panathenaic procession or the Eleusinian Iacchus, as well as the dead of the wars, who were buried under the care of the city at the Public Mark, with games and epitaphs, such as that of Pericles .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The spirit and ideals of ancient Athens and ancient Greece are condensed in Kerameikos.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
