Lecture Details

Haury 129

Presenter: 

Dr. Mary Voyatzis

In this talk, we shall look at the the developments at this mountain top shrine in the Peloponnese from the Neolithic to the Hellenistic periods, over c. 4500 years, and consider what drew people up to this remote site, what activities took place there, and what role it may have played in society over time. The recent archaeological evidence will be shared, as will information about our future directions of research.
