“…). Recent research has also aimed to validate early records of auroral descriptions or attempted to explain the geophysical background, taking the solar activity and its periodicities as well as tilt and dipole moment of the geomagnetic field into account (e.g., Liritzis and Petropoulos ; Liritzis , ; Oguti ; Siscoe et al . ; Raspopov et al .…”

“…The occurrence of the northern lights coinciding with the cessation of the plague of 430 BC may have been taken as a sign of Apollo's deliverance from this plague, probably leading local people to orient the temple towards these lights in thanksgiving. Supportive contextual evidence for aurorae given in some ancient Greek literature (Liritzis and Vassiliou 2002, Stothers 1979a, 1979b) is coupled with supportive contemporary research on aurorae and archaeomagnetic data (Keimatsu 1968, Liritzis 1988, 1990, Liritzis and Petropoulos 1987), all of which make it clear that the aurorae could be seen at these latitudes.…”
