Ancient Athenians were known to reuse stone artifacts, architectural blocks, and public statuary in the creation of new buildings and monuments. These construction decisions were often a visible mechanism for shaping communal memory. Sarah Rous develops the concept of upcycling to refer to this meaningful reclamation.
