The Acropolis of Athens was indisputably the religious center of the city and played a pivotal role in shaping various aspects of Athenian identity. This study adopts a holistic approach —integrating literary, epigraphic, topographic and iconographic evidence, to examine the east slope of the Acropolis as a mnemotopos (place of memory) associated with war(s). The primary aim of my paper is to emphasize the significance of the east slope of the Acropolis as the topos and lieu de mémoire par excellence, both for mythical and historical wars.
