Volume 10 of the records of the Samothrace excavations focuses on the elaborate Propylon dedicated by Ptolemy II , which was, from early Hellenistic times, the entrance to the Sanctuary. Among ancient Greek gatehouses, only the Propylaia of the Athenian Akropolis matched the Samothracian Propylon in precipitousness of site and number of unusual features. The P ropylon was a large, marble, temple-like building--amphiprostyle and hexastyle. Its massive substructure was penetrated by a wide, vaulted tunnel, through which flowed the waters of the torrent that formed the Sanctuary's eastern boundary. This courageous feat of Hellenistic engineering had its counterpart in the artistic audacity of the superstructure, which exhibited an Ionic facade facing the road from the city of Samothrace and a Corinthian facade facing the causeway between the Propylon and the sacred precinct. The narrow stairway to the building's attic suggests that the Propylon may have had a role in the mystery cult's liturgy" ; FINE/G (v.1) ; FINE/FINE (v.2). Book.

Beginning with the forced relocation of the 1830s, the author chronicles the efforts of missionaries to establish schools, churches, and a Christian civilization among the tribes, despite resistance from both the government and some tribal members. Through firsthand accounts and historical analysis, the book sheds light on the complex relationship between Christianity, colonialism, and the preservation of Indigenous culture. It underscores the resilience and adaptability of the Methodist Church as it grappled with the challenges of ministering to a diverse and often hostile population, ultimately contributing to the growth of a vibrant Christian community within Native American society.
