For 200 years, the Corinthians have sold their pottery all over the Greek world, and Corinth became a wealthy and busy commercial center. In metallurgy and ceramics, was very hard work. The potters were in a part of Athens called Ceramics, Pottery or quarter. Training clay acquired Cape Colias, six miles from the city. Mixed with vermilion and yellow or tan or red, and put it on the wheel only. The molded articles are dried in the sun and specialized painters decorated by hand. The Sphinx, an imaginary creature of ancient myths, is best known for the puzzle to give him the Muses: "What creature was once the voice works sometimes four, sometimes three and sometimes two, and is weakest when it walks on four? "Man!" She often sat perched on the mountain Phicium, asking each person passing an enigma. If you responded to her illness, she eats. It is also estimated that the Sphinx leaped to her death, when asked a riddle of Oedipus gave the correct answer. The Egyptians, Greeks and Middle Eastern peoples have stories of a creature. The Egyptian sphinx generally a man's head and body, legs, feet and tail of a lion. The Greek Sphinx was generally a woman's head and according to Greek literature, lived on a rock outside the city of Thebes.

The ancient Greeks were the firs to develop a society democratic way of life. More than 200 years, began the idea that all citizens should take an active part in the government, historians consider the founder of Western civilization. Greek civilization was more advanced than any other historians. The speakers were Greek philosophers and poets. The Greeks were the first to study botany, geometry, medicine, medicine and zoology at the science base. Also held the first Olympic sport.
The ancient Greeks called themselves Hellenes, and their land Hellas. They never formed a national government, but a common culture, religion and language between them. Anyone who called Greeks, whose language was Greek activates a Hellene, even if you have lived in Greece, and anyone who does not speak Greek a barbarian. civilization Greek developed into a rocky, mountainous peninsula advancing on the Mediterranean Sea to southern Europe and nearby sea islands. The common people of each island and formed a separate community called a city-state. No city-state has enough good land to support its people. Communities fighting each other instead of uniting. Athens and Sparta became the most famous city-state.
