Ancient Greece - Peloponnesian War

The Areopagus was a rocky outcrop near the Acropolis, once a powerful meeting place for the council of elders, the Areopagus Council. Although its political weight diminished by the time of the Peloponnesian War, it remained significant for its influence in cases involving murder and religious matters, standing as a testament to ancient Athenian law and justice.
