    [synopsis] => We take up our narrative at the point of time when the Athenians returned to their ruined homes after the defeat of the Persians at Plataea. Of their ancient city, nothing remained but a few houses, which had served as lodgings for the Persian grandees, and some scattered fragments of the surrounding wall. Their first task was to restore the outer line of defence, and by the advice of Themistocles, the new wall took in a much wider circuit than the old rampart, which had been destroyed by the Persians. The whole population toiled night and day to raise the bulwark, which was to guard their temples and their homes, using as materials the walls of the houses, which had been sacked and burnt by the Persians, with whatever remained of public buildings, sacred or profane, and sparing not even the monumental pillars of graves in the urgency of their need.
