We say goodbye to Dimitris Pandermalis with sadness, but also with gratitude. Because with his hoe he revealed unique archaeological treasures of the country. With his brilliant teaching he inspired countless students. While his modest presence in the parliamentary seats offered quality to public life. His indelible legacy will remain visible to every visitor of the Acropolis Museum. A unique landmark of history and memory, for which he himself labored and deserved to see completed. He had time, as he said himself, to see “the faces of ordinary citizens, children of our country, but also children of other countries, inside the museum. To see the statues. To face, outside, the Parthenon and their faces light up. So that they will understand for the first time what we mean when we say: “this is how Western civilization was born here!””. In memory of the Professor, it is worth intensifying efforts to realize his great desire: to reunite the sculptures of the Parthenon. Therma condolences to his relatives.
