This we find Pisistratus doing. He entered into alliances with Sparta, Thebes, Macedonia, and other states. Through these various connections Pisistratus made firmer his position both at home and abroad, while giving at the same time a wider range "to the growing fame of Athens and enlarging the field of enterprise of the Athenian traders.
But before all else was the tyrant, in imitation of so many others of his class, a liberal patron of the gods and of art. He established or at least gave inc...reased splendor to what was known as the Great Panathenasa,'- a festival held every fourth year, in honor of Athens' patron goddess Athena, a main feature of which was a brilliant pro- cession of youth carrying a rich robe woven by Athenian maidens and matrons as a gift to the virgin goddess.; instituted a new festival in honor of Dionysus ; and began at Athens the erection of a temple to Zeus Olympius on such a magnificent scale that it remained unfinished until the resources of the Roman emperor Hadrian, nearly seven hundred years later, carried the colossal building to completion.
