During the later 19th century the new studies of archaeology and anthropology began to offer a quite separate view of ancient Greece, which had previously been experienced at second-hand only through Greek literature, Greek sculpture and architecture.
Selama akhir abad ke-19 studi baru arkeologi dan antropologi mulai menawarkan pandangan yang cukup terpisah dari Yunani kuno, yang sebelumnya telah dialami di tangan kedua hanya melalui sastra Yunani, patung dan arsitektur Yunani.
