Nude
images of male athletes, gods and fighters could be found everywhere in ancient
Greece.

Everywhere!

These
images were displayed wherever people gathered, to serve as symbols of Areté or
Manly excellence – to remind the ancient Greeks just how much they valued and
cherished Areté. 

These
male nude images were symbols of Righteousness, that when a Man had Areté, that
he was in total possession of his Manhood.

A Man
with Areté had the ability and willingness to fight. He possessed all the Moral
Virtues that make Men good, such as Humility, Integrity, Selflessness, Self
Control and showing the proper Respect for people, places and things.

Areté
was very important to the ancient Greeks.

Areté is very important to us as well.

Train and fight!

Always seek and cherish Manliness!

Take
