A graffiti made by a shepherd in ancient Greece has helped archaeologists uncover a long-standing mystery about the history of the iconic Acropolis of Athens.

The Parthenon is a world-renowned archaeological site with millions visiting the temple on the rocky hill of Athens each year.

However, archaeologists have long debated whether temples existed on the Acropolis long before the Parthenon.

Now, researchers have found graffiti drawn by a shepherd named“Mikon” who lived in the 6th century BC, which depicts a temple on the Acropolis predating the Parthenon.

By signing his drawing using particular alphabets, Mikon has allowed the graffiti to be dated.
