Edward Clarke felt his knees buckle with emotion and sat down on a stone. "John..." he began, "I have a feeling that we have reached the end..." His student looked at him in astonishment. "Now I feel it!" Clarke continued. "Our journey had a purpose, a destination, only I did not know what it was. And today it was revealed to me!" "Our destination was Demeter?" "Yes, my dear child. Demeter was the one who called us to her sanctuary to be her saviors!" The abduction of the "goddess Demeter" from Eleusis, the abduction of Aphrodite from Milos, and the sculptures from the temple of Aphaia on Aegina are just three of the many cases of looting of antiquities that occurred in Turkish-occupied Greece from the late 18th to the early 19th centuries. Meet the protagonists of these three stories and their exciting adventures and experience the atmosphere of the era when the great "hunt for antiquities" peaked, a few years before the outbreak of the revolution of 1821.
