CANCELED - Investigating a Minoan Coastal Town in East Crete - CANCELED

THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELED

Palaikastro is one of the most intensively excavated settlements of Minoan Crete (ca. 2700-1400 BC). In this talk Prof. Carl Knappett, University of Toronto, reports on excavations in a new neighborhood on the edge of town, while also applying techniques of landscape analysis to look at the site’s environmental setting.
