Question
#26430. RND
asks:
The authorities in Athens were very concerned that tourists sometimes hacked pieces of marble away from the columns of the ancient Parthenon buildings. The practice was illegal, but some people seemed determined to take away souvenirs. How did the authorities stop this vandalism?

They roped it off. 'I'm not old enough to remember the day Kennedy was shot, but I remember where I was the day they roped off the Parthenon. Terribly distressing news. The reports talked about vandalism and graffiti, and, although having had nothing to do with the roping off, the destruction from pollution.' http://www.greecejournals.com/magical_journey/
