In 447 Pericles began the project he is most famous for: the building program on the Acropolis. The most ambitious building program in Greek history, the building of the Parthenon was Pericles' greatest triumph and he oversaw the project personally.
Who Was Pericles? Pericles (495-429 BCE) was born five years before the battle of Marathon, in an ongoing era of conflict between changing alliances of Grecian states and Persia.
