Pausanius Greek Traveller and Writer
● Pausanias was a second-century AD Greek traveler and geographer who lived during the time of the Roman emperors Hadrian, Antoninus Pius, and Marcus Aurelius. He wrote a “Description of Greece” in ten books, each devoted to some part of Greece
One of the books was about Arcadia, a region in the central Peloponnese, an ancient and mysterious place where the Pelasgians, followers of Pelasgus, began human civilization.
Pausanius tells us that it was Pelasgus who “invented huts in which men should not shiver, nor be drenched by rain, or oppressed by heat.
He also invented sheepskin coats, such as the poor people wear to this day in Euboea and Phocis.”
Pausanius also tells us that Pelasgus “introduced as food the nuts of trees, not the nuts of all trees, but only the acorns of the edible oak.” He notes that even in his own time the Arcadians were fond of acorns.
