This paper includes exam questions on a reconstructed sanctuary drawing identified as the Acropolis of Athens, including labelled structures such as the Erechtheion and Temple of Athena Nike, and asks candidates to evaluate the usefulness of archaeological reconstructions for understanding Olympian worship. Further questions examine the trial and execution of Socrates, religious tensions in classical Athens, impiety, philosophical challenges to traditional belief, and whether faith in the Olympian gods was declining by the late 5th century BCE. Section B contains evaluative essay questions about women’s participation in Greek religion and whether Greek worship was motivated mainly by personal benefit.
