Archaeology of Ancient Greece The Ancient Greek World - An Introduction Location: http://www.museum.upenn.edu./Greek_World/Intro.html This site from the University of Pennsylvania Museum surveys numerous aspects of ancient Greek life. It is broken down into four categories: land, daily life, the economy, death and religion. Each category is sub-divided into smaller sections, making the site easier to read. It provides concise summaries of these aspects of Greek life, giving the reader a foundation of information on ancient Greek life. The site also includes numerous pictures for each category. The pictures include art works and artifacts, as well as maps. The information is well-organized and clearly presented. Lisa DeSimone The Archaeological Museum of Aigion Location: http://www.culture.gr:80/2/21/211/21106m/e211fm02.html This website from Aigion, Greece includes exhibits dating from the Paleolithic Age to the Roman Period. It was created by the Hellenistic Ministry of Culture. Some of the more interesting exhibits include a necklace of cornaline and glass-paste beads dated from the fourteenth to thirteenth century B.C.E., a Corinthian krater dated from 690 B.C.E., and a antefix decorated with a painted palmette. I would suggest seeing the krater and the antefix in the larger size to get all the detail needed to appreciate the exhibits.

Department of Archaeology ARCHAEOLOGY RESEARCH AT NOTTINGHAM Bulgaria and Greece: The Transition to Late Antiquity Fieldwork 1997 The programme commenced on July 11th and terminated on August 16th. The team represented a total labour force of about 85 people. Apart from the Director, the team comprised 15 professional British field-officers and specialists, 31 students from the University of Nottingham, 4 from the Institute of Archaeology (UCL), London, two postgraduates, one from the Sorbonne, the other from Nottingham, 20 students from the Universities of Sofia and Veliko Turnovo. In addition, there were colleagues from the Veliko Turnovo Museum and the Institute of Archaeology, Sofia as well as craftsmen, drivers and watchmen recruited from the village of Nikiup. Excavations were carried out at Dichin on the site of the aqueduct (areas A and B), within the late Roman village of Gradishteto (areas C, D, E and F) and within the Roman city of Nicopolis, area 2 . Mr M. Whyman and Ms. E. Shepherd acted in turn as vice-directors. For a full team list see back of this report. In addition an inspection was carried out of other village sites in the region to assess the feasibility of carrying out intensive pick-up surveys. The physical survey of the hill at Dichin, the location of the aqueduct excavations and the river terraces were finished (Mr J. Percival). A geomorphological survey at Dichin was completed (see report by Dr Heike Neumann). The environmental programmes (seeds and animal bone) were set up ( see reports, respectively, by Ms. H. Mcleavy and Mr I. Smith), ceramic research continued (see report by Mr M. Beckmann), as well as the recording and identification of small-finds and coins (by Dr P. Guest).

Delphi Archaeology The rich heritage of the Greek history spanning back four and a half thousand years has sown the harsh grounds around the Aegean with stones and artifacts that blossom for centuries. This is a collection of thoughts, images and resources from Greek Archaeological sites intended as a reference for a scholar, and as an introduction to bring those who cannot be there closer. Acropolis The Acropolis with its rich history and archaeological significance has become the embodiment of all ancient Greek ideals. The archaeological finds of the Acropolis, its art and architecture, have influenced western culture for the past two millennia and even in a ruinous state, continue to guide aesthetics and ideas as a cultural compass from the past. Archaeological Sites of Crete Crete is a land endowed with a rich historical heritage which spans more than nine millennia since its fertile, secure, and strategically placed land mass has been inhabited since the seventh millennium BC. Cultures on the island have sown the land with ancient palaces, cities, villas, and a plethora of exquisite artifacts which date back to the Minoan era. As a visitor I marveled at the unique cultural heritage of Minoan culture and I created several pages around the experiences and pictures from my visits. Minoan Crete: Knossos Malia Phaistos Zakros ... Delphi Archaeological Site Delphi is one of the most important ancient sites in Greece. As a major religious center under the protection of the god Apollo its oracles influenced major political events of the ancient world.

1. Digging under fire 2. Dig Iraq? 3. Archeology - political tool 4. Rocket museum Archeology meets politics If politics can get in the way of archeology, what happens when archeology is forced to serve politics? We're thinking here about nationalism - the pursuit of cultural identity and political power by religious, ethnic or national groups. Archeology can help the nationalist in several ways. It can literally create a past - real or imagined - that justifies a national claim to territory. It can create a "how great we once were" mentality that increases social cohesion or the desire to sacrifice for the nation. These days, says Wilkie, "Nationalism in archeology has been a very hot topic. It's arising everywhere. It's using archeology to justify a relationship with a past that might not be the real past." Delicate phrasing, but nothing new, Sabloff says. "Archeological information has been used and misused for centuries, if not millennia, but we're much more conscious of it today. Archeologists are well aware that they have to be very careful about what they say, and how they say it." Archeological pollution, Nazi-style

Ancient Greece T he early Greeks, who settled on the Greek mainland and the western coast of Asia Minor, thought of themselves as humble successors to their heroic ancestors of the Mycenaean Bronze Age. While their land lacked natural resources, it was ideally situated for trade, and the Greeks soon established colonies throughout the Mediterranean. They lived in independent city-states ( the polis ,) bonded across continents by a common language, religion, art and social structure. From the 8th through the 4th centuries BC, the Greek world established itself as the premier classical society of artisans, architects, and writers of possibly all time. They created statues, pottery, and friezes of unbelievable proportion, style, grace, and beauty. Their architecture continuously achieved the same artistic magnificence with the invention of the Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian styles. They were the first people to establish the widespread circulation of coinage as the basis for economic growth and trade as Athens became the largest trading center in the ancient world around the 5th century BC. Politically it was a democratically based society with religious beliefs revolving around mythological creatures and god-like heroes. Zeus was the king of their gods and Herakles their legendary human hero. This influence in art, politics, and literature reverberated throughout history and into modern times. The next major phase, called the Hellenistic period, was ushered in through the conquests of Philip II of Macedon and his son, Alexander the Great. Having secured his father's control of Greece, Alexander vastly expanded his kingdom to include Egypt and the Near East, to beyond the Indus River (modern Pakistan). While the political integrity of the empire did not survive the death of Alexander in 323 B.C., its natural impact was far-reaching.

Your browser does not support javascript Was There a Trojan War? Volume 57 Number 3, May/June 2004 by Manfred Korfmann Despite assumptions to the contrary, archaeological work of the new Troy project has not been performed for the purpose of understanding Homer's Iliad or the Trojan War. For the past 16 years, more than 350 scholars, scientists, and technicians from nearly 20 countries have been collaborating on the excavations at the site in northwestern Turkey that began as an Early Bronze Age citadel in the third millennium B.C. and ended as a Byzantine settlement before being abandoned in A.D. 1350. However, as current director of the excavations, I am continually asked if Homer's Trojan War really happened. An aerial view of the site as it exists today (Troia Projekt) [LARGER IMAGE] The Size of Troy Troy appears to have been destroyed around 1180 B.C. (this date corresponds to the end of our excavation of levels Troy VIi or VIIa), probably by a war the city lost. There is evidence of a conflagration, some skeletons, and heaps of sling bullets. People who have successfully defended their city would have gathered their sling bullets and put them away for another event, but a victorious conqueror would have done nothing with them. But this does not mean that the conflict was the wareven though ancient tradition usually places it around this time. After a transitional period of a few decades, a new population from the eastern Balkans or the northwestern Black Sea region evidently settled in the ruins of what was probably a much weakened city.

Your browser does not support javascript Preserving Jewish Heritage in Greece September 23, 1998 by Elias V. Messinas Detail of the Greek inscription on a mosaic at the ancient synagogue on the island of Aegina. This synagogue, which dates to the middle of the fourth century A.D., was a simple rectangle in plan with an apse on the east end. It was originally located near the ancient port of the island. (Elias V. Messinas collection) [LARGER IMAGE] Greek synagogues are modest buildings. Like their counterparts in Turkey, they are often hidden behind walls, accessed through small doors from the market or side streets. Their importance rests not so much in their architecture. Rather, they are remnants of an ancient tradition that has been lost in most parts of Greece, vestiges of thriving communities that perished during World War II. Their preservation and study is an obligation, and perhaps a last opportunity to save a tradition that is being lost to emigration, assimilation, and ignorance. I returned to Greece in the summer of 1993 after spending ten years abroad studying and working in Israel and the United States. Coming from a world where Jewish heritage was considered worthy of preservation, I was shocked to find that the conservation of synagogues was not on the agenda of Greek or Greek-Jewish officials. The extent to which this was not an issue became clear when I started writing articles about the endangered state of Greek Jewish heritage, only to be told that I was threatening the well-being of the community! Despite this indifference, I began surveying and studying Greece's remaining synagogues, supported in part by the World Monuments Fund and a seed grant from the Jewish Museum of Greece.

Acknowledgments 1. What jobs are available for archaeologists? Professional archaeologists work for universities, colleges, museums, the federal government, state governments, in private companies, and as consultants. They teach, conduct field investigations, analyze artifacts and sites, and publish the results of their research. The minimal educational requirement to work as a field archaeologist is a B.A. or B.S. degree with a major in anthropology or archaeology and previous field experience (usually obtained by spending a summer in an archaeological field school or participating as a volunteer, see question 5). While this is sufficient to work on an archaeological field crew, it is not sufficient to move into supervisory roles. Supervisory positions require a graduate degree, either an M.A./M.S. or a Ph.D. Academic Positions Museum Positions . Museums may be connected with a university or independent. Museum curators conduct research, publish the results, give public presentations, prepare displays, and conserve the museum collections. Museum positions require a graduate degree (M.A./M.S. or Ph.D.). Museum positions are usually full-year appointments.
