One of Zeus' favorite pastimes is to disguise himself as a mortal and wander through Athens' Agora. He enjoys gossiping with the philosophers and marvels at the sights of this marketplace.

He wants other city-states, as well as the world to know what a typical day at the Agora is like...the sights, sounds, tastes, and yes, even smells!

Zeus has chosen you to receive this exciting assignment. You are going undercover to spend time in the heart of the Agora. Write a detailed, descriptive article about what you observe happening there. Include who you meet, what you discuss, what you buy, things you hear, and interesting sights you find while visiting the Agora.

(Hint: For this assignment, you'll find a lot of your research in books.)
