Twenty-one objects recovered in the recent underwater excavations on the Antikythera shipwreck will be exhibited for the first time as a unified set at the Aikaterini Laskaridis Foundation in Piraeus in December.
“It will be much larger than the 2014 exhibition when we had only exhibited in the downstairs hall a spear, a lagynos (type of vessel used by the crew) and a piece of wood from the ship,” the head of EUA, Dr. Angeliki Simosi said, adding that this year’s exhibition will be located at the first floor and will last a month.
The exhibition will he held on the occasion of the presentation of the results of the 2016 research, which will be held at the Foundation on December 2, combined with the 40-year anniversary of the Ephorate of Underwater Antiquities (EUA).
