   Excellent answer! How did you know? Have you been there? Have you found it on the internet? Or you are a brilliant archaeologist?

   I lived in Athens from 2005-2008, but the Acropolis is clearly visible in the photo, so it was an easy call.

     Your wish will be my command. Next time I will set up something a lot more difficult. You better get it right!

   Try asking historical questions instead of archaeological ones. This way:
   a) you can make the questions more complex
   b) I can participate!
