On the day of the Hene kai Nea (or sometimes, like this month, the day after), I post a monthly update about things that happened on the blog and in projects and organizations related to it. I will also announce Elaion's coming PAT rituals.
Statistics:
- A little over 1.181.000 views right now!
- 15.000 of those hits happened in the last month
- The top five most popular posts were: The three types of souls of Aristotle (917), Plouton and his dog return to "Gate of Hell" (343), Ubisoft unveils Gods & Monsters, light-hearted Hellenic mythology adventure game (321), PBP: Symbols of Hellenismos (270), and God of War and homosexuality in ancient Hellas (180).
