Abstract
The chapter offers a demonstration of the impact of a granular case study using material and sensory approaches and articulates some central themes of the volume. It concerns General Ioannis Makriyannis (1797–1864) and his approach to antiquities and their depiction in his Memoirs, in commissioned images and in a vernacular pebble mosaic in his garden. The multivalency of antiquities to local Greeks emerges, offering both heightened and unremarkable quotidian encounters.
