When is a mystery truly mysterious?This was the thought that ran through mypuzzled mind, when I first saw the magic sphere of Helios, exhibited at the new Acropolis Museum in Athens. Why is this antiquity so terribly understated? Were the museum authorities trying to tell the visitor to move on and not to waste their valuable time looking at this particular exhibit?

Within less than a minute I had taken more than a dozen shots of this truly magical globe, covered with what I perceived to be sacred geometric symbolism.
