How many gods can been found in the Parthenon?
I think there were quite a few, i don't know the number, but the culture believed in many idols. I'm not sure if this was the place where Jesus or one of the saints found the one statue dedicated to the "unknown god", but He used that reference in the Bible to teach that there was only one true God(The Trinity).
The culture, later, had themselves pictured on the walls with the numerous "gods", in the stone.
