Abstract

Abstract:In 1929–1930, commercial waterworks inspired antiquarian ventures in Attica and Macedonia. An American firm faced the Marathon Dam in Pentelic marble and built a copy of the Athenian Treasury of Delphi at its foot, while fragments of a colossal ancient lion found while dredging the Strymon River near Amphipolis were reconstructed with support from the U.S. minister to Greece, Lincoln MacVeagh. At Corinth, archaeology drove hydraulic interventions. There, in 1932, Bert Hodge Hill undertook a comprehensive sanitation program with the Athens School of Hygiene, funded by the Rockefeller Foundation. This work remains an important case study in rural groundwater management, and it was an investment in the future of Ancient Corinth.

水力成因:20世纪早期希腊的美国考古学和水利工程

摘要:1929-1930年，商业自来水厂激发了阿提卡和马其顿的古物投资。一家美国公司用Pentelic大理石面对马拉松大坝，并在其脚下建造了一个雅典德尔菲财政部的复制品，而在安菲波利斯附近的斯特雷蒙河疏浚时发现的一只巨大的古代狮子的碎片，在美国驻希腊部长林肯·麦克维的支持下进行了重建。在科林斯，考古推动了水力干预。1932年，伯特·霍奇·希尔(Bert Hodge Hill)在洛克菲勒基金会的资助下，与雅典卫生学院开展了一项全面的卫生项目。这项工作仍然是农村地下水管理的重要案例研究，也是对古科林斯未来的投资。
