About Me

I grew up in Ionia, but I spent my formative years traveling the Mediterranean basin. I lived in Athens for a long time, and then I moved to Thurii, but that didn't work out so well so I came back to Athens. I'm actually about 2500 years old, but for some reason myspace discriminates against the venerably aged. I enjoy irony, feats of strength, and freaks of nature.

My Interests

Great deeds, marvels, the rise and fall of peoples and cities, wine, poetry

I'd like to meet:

Some Skythians, so we could take a vapor bath.

Music:

I like dithyrambic chorus, rhapsodic recitation, and female flute players

Movies:

What?

Television:

What?

Books:

I'm quite fond of Hecataeus of Miletus' "Periegesis," but I think I could do better. I like Homer's style, and Sophocles really grabs me too.

Heroes:

Tellus the Athenian, Cleobus, Biton, Leonidas, Cyrus the Great
