MORE FUNDING!

We are happy to report some more good news - INSTAP has decided to fund SEEP's Karystian Kampos survey with another grant for the summer of 2008. The survey is now almost complete and we hope to be able to make our results public soon. The plans for this summer are to revisit a few of the seemingly more important findspots among the ones located in 2006 and 2007 and to begin the study of the collected material. We are also fortunate to have Dr. Athanassios Vionis from the University of Leiden this summer who will be studying the late Roman and Byzantine material from the survey.
Onward!

Plans for Summer 2008

In June and July of 2008 SEEP will continue work on the Karystian Kampos Survey Project. This season is dedicated mainly to the study of the collected material and to the initial preparations for publication. Nonetheless, we plan to revisit some of the most important sites located during the past two survey seasons and to conduct detailed collection of the surface material in order to examine its possible differential on-site distribution.

During the month of June, the Ephorate for Paleoanthropology-Speleology of Southern Greece and SEEP will continue the excavations of the prehistoric Ayia Traidha cave, pending the arrival of financial assistance from the relevant institutions. More details about this project will soon be available at the Ay. Triadha Excavation Project (ATEP) web page.
