Bassae is an archaeological site in Oichalia, a municipality in the northeastern part of Messenia [1]. Bassae was the first Greek site to be inscribed on the World Heritage List, in 1986 [1]. Charles Robert Cockerell and Carl Haller von Hallerstein, having secured sculptures at Aegina, hoped for more successes at Bassae in 1811; all Haller's careful drawings of the site were lost at sea, however [1].
