Greece to open new Acropolis Museum this weekend
An ancient marble male portrait is displayed in the new Acropolis Museum in Athens, Greece, Wednesday, June 17, 2008, as the ancient Parthenon temple is seen in the background. Greece's Orthodox Church on Wednesday formally blessed the new museum, which is scheduled to open this weekend. Greek officials hope one day to display the British Museum's Elgin Marbles from the Acropolis in the glass and concrete museum despite repeated refusals from London. (AP Photo/Petros Giannakouris)
