Ancient Olympia
It's been a while since I've uploaded but I've got a new one right here. This project was inspired by a recent trip to Greece back in March 2023 where I was fortunate enough to visit the ancient sanctuary at Olympia. Olympia is best known for being the birthplace and home of the Ancient Olympic Games for 1000 years before it was ultimately canceled shortly after the collapse of the Roman Empire. This build recreates the Sanctuary as it appears during the Roman Period, sometime around the 2nd Century CE.

Structures
  • The Temple of Zeus
  • The Temple of Hera
  • The Phillippeion
  • The Palaestra
  • Pheidias' Workshop
  • The Leondiaion
  • The Roman Nymphaeum
  • The Treasuries of Olympia
  • The Olympic Stadium
  • The Echo Stoa
  • The South Stoa
  • The Bouleuterion
  • The Pytaneion
  • The Pelopion

Hey man, are you going to make the map available for download, because I want to do a Greek construction in my world and I want to get some references

THIS MAP IS SO GOOD

When I finish up with it I will be making it available, but for now I believe my Ancient Athens map is up for download and I use a lot of the same building techniques there as I do here. If you'd like some influence you can go download that, as long as you don't try to claim it for yourself of course!

I might make this available for download once it's fully done, there's still a few things I need to add. Currently deciding on whether or not I should attempt the Olympian Hippodrome, and still adding details such as potential building interiors.
