Question

A part of one of these structures names an archaeological society founded by Annita Theocharaki and Leda Costaki, which creates interactive maps based on previously private rescue excavations. The construction of one of these structures was facilitated by a victory at Oenophyta, reversing losses suffered by Myronides at Tanagra. The road to Eleusis began at a part of one of these structures in between a cemetery and the “potter's quarters” in (*) Kerameikos. One of these structures was built after Mardonius’s forces ransacked a city. (-5[1])One of these structures included the Dipylon, which belonged to one named for Themistocles. Phaleron and Piraeus were connected safely (10[1])to a city via the “long” ones of these structures. For 10 points, name these defensive fortifications built to protect Athens. ■END■ (10[1])

ANSWER: Athenian walls [or the Long Walls; or Themistoclean Walls; prompt on gate or Sacred Gate with “what larger structure was this part of?”; do the same with Dipylon until mentioned]
