>The Parthenon was converted into a Christian church in the final decades of the fifth century[107] to become the Church of the Parthenos Maria (Virgin Mary) or the Church of the Theotokos (Mother of God). The orientation of the building was changed to face towards the east; the main entrance was placed at the building's western end, and the Christian altar and iconostasis were situated towards the building's eastern side adjacent to an apse built where the temple's pronaos was formerly located.[108][109][110] A large central portal with surrounding side-doors was made in the wall dividing the cella, which became the church's nave, and from the rear chamber, the church's narthex.[108] The spaces between the columns of the opisthodomos and the peristyle were walled up, though a number of doorways still permitted access.[108] Icons were painted on the walls, and many Christian inscriptions were carved into the Parthenon's columns.[103] These renovations inevitably led to the removal and dispersal of some of the sculptures. Sometime after the Parthenon was converted to a Christian church, the metopes of the north, west and east facades of the Parthenon were defaced by Christians in order to remove images of pagan deities. The damage was so extensive that the images on the affected metopes often can't be confidently identified.[111][112]>The Parthenon became the fourth most important Christian pilgrimage destination in the Eastern Roman Empire after Constantinople, Ephesos, and Thessaloniki.[113] In 1018, the emperor Basil II went on a pilgrimage to Athens after his final victory over the First Bulgarian Empire for the sole purpose of worshipping at the Parthenon.[113] In medieval Greek accounts it is called the Temple of Theotokos Atheniotissa and often indirectly referred to as famous without explaining exactly which temple they were referring to, thus establishing that it was indeed well known.[113]
Yes, the devil (female), an inversion of divinity, has been trying for many millennia to creep up and become God herself. Apparently, the power of pussy is really hard for you stupid fucks to fight against. Bravo!
>>18006088another silly and ironic incelanysis/incelplenation, knowing that the Parthenon was dedicated to a female goddess.
