Day Cruise to Egina – Hydra - Poros Take a cruise to the fabulous Greek islands of Hydra, Poros and Egina for a relaxing day on the sea. Itinerary: After transferring from Athens to Piraeus by bus, we are off to the island of Hydra, where you'll have free time for strolling, shopping and swimming (the weather usually allows it even in October). Next, it's on to the island of Egina, passing through the narrow passage separating the Peloponnesian coast from the island of Poros. Upon arrival in Egina you can either join an excursion to the Temple of Aphaia or take a walk around the main town. Egina is one of the Saronic islands of Greece in the Saronic Gulf. The lovely island is only 50 km from Athens, and is a popular getaway for Athenians. We will enjoy our lunch on a local tavern in Egina, after lunch our journey will continue to Poros in the southern Agrosaronic Gulf. You'll have free time to explore Poros – perhaps you'd like to visit ancient Trizina, the ruins of the Russian Dockyard or take a romantic stroll in the Lemon Forest.

Within the sprawling city of Athens it is easy to imagine the golden age of Greece when Pericles had the Parthenon (the most eminent monument of the ancient Greek architecture) built. Athens is built around the Acropolis and the pinnacled crag of Mt. Lycabettus, which the goddess Athena was said to have dropped from the heavens as a bulwark to defend the city. Te suburbs have covered the barren plain in all directions and the city is packed with lively taverns and bustling shops. Cyclades - Greece 5 Kea An exceptionally picturesque island. On the south side of Nikolaos Bay - which was a pirate stronghold in the 13th c. - is the little port of Korissia, built on the side of ancient Korissia. Tere are remains of the ancient town walls and a Sanctuary of Apollo. Te famous lion - carved from the native rock in the 6th c. BCE - can be seen just north-east of Kea town. Another highlight is the beautiful anchorage of Poleis.

Quaternary Calcarenite ("Poros") of Mykonos, Delos
∆ελτίο της Ελληνικής Γεωλογικής Εταιρίας τοµ. XXXVI, 2004 Bulletin of the Geological Society of Greece vol. XXXVI, 2004 Πρακτικά 10ου ∆ιεθνούς Συνεδρίου, Θεσ/νίκη Απρίλιος 2004 Proceedings of the 10th International Congress, Thessaloniki, April 2004 QUATERNARY CALCARENITE ("POROS") OF MYKONOS, DELOS AND RHENIA, CYCLADES ISLANDS, GREECE Varti-Mataranga M.1 and Piper W.J.D.2 1Institute of Geological &Mineral Exploration (IGME), Messogion 70, Athens 11527, Greece, [email protected], [email protected]. 2Geological Survey of Canada (Atlantic), Bedford Institute of Oceanography, P.O. Box 1006, Dartmouth, N.S., B2Y 4A2, Canada, [email protected]. ABSTRACT Outcrops of friable calc-arenite of late Quaternary age, known as Poros rock, from Mykonos, Rhenia and Delos, are characterized sedimentologically and their cements are studied in thin sec- tion. Calcarenites of beach, coastal eolian dune, and pedogenic alluvium origin are distinguished sedimentologically. Beach calcarenite shows marine cementation by a uniform rim of micrite and bladed Mg-calcite. Some eolian dunes show precipitation of needle aragonite, probably from sea spray, but the dominant cements are sparry calcite from groundwater and vadose zone deposition of irregular micrite with meniscus and gravitational textures. Pedogenically cemented alluvium shows the characteristics of caliche, such as rhizoliths with clots and globules of micrite and circum- granular cracking. One outcrop of calcarenite from Panormos Bay in Mykonos shows beach facies at +2.5 to +4.0 m above present sea level, overlying cemented debris flow deposits. This occur- rence is interpreted as Tyrrhenian in age (isotopic stage 5e) and implies regional long-term subsi- dence of 2 cm/ka, consistent with the lack of marine terraces in the area.

ARCL 0066: the Emergence of Bronze Age Aegean States
UCL INSTITUTE OF ARCHAEOLOGY ARCL 0066: The Emergence of Bronze Age Aegean States 2019-2020 - Term 2 Undergraduate Year 2-3 option, 15 credits Coursework deadlines: Monday 21st February 2020, Monday 3rd April 2020 (TBC) Co-ordinator: Dr. Borja Legarra Herrero [email protected], Room 106 1 1. OVERVIEW Short Description This course provides a survey of Aegean prehistory from The Neolithic until c. 1500-1400 BC. It focuses on the origins of complex societies during the 3rd and 2nd millennium BC and the dynamics of the Minoan palatial societies that followed. It provides a broadly chronologically overview of the region’s long-term transformations and the remarkably rich data (material, iconographic and archival) on which interpretations are based. It encourages a thematic treatment, within a theoretically informed, problem-oriented framework, of major processes including: state formation, elaboration and collapse; production, trade and consumption in and beyond the Aegean; archaeologies of cult and death; the interpretation of symbols and images; and the place of the prehistoric Aegean within the wider Mediterranean and Near Eastern world. The course equally emphasises the need to understand how interpretations and data collection strategies have developed, and the impact this has had on accounts of Aegean prehistory. Week-by-week summary (lectures are Monday, 10-12.00, in Room 410). Date Session Topic 13 Jan. 1 Introduction: Aegean space, time and environments. 2 Is ‘Minoan’ the right word? Biases in the study of the Aegean Bronze Age. 20 Jan. 3 Neolithics: taming of a fragmented landscape. 4 Seminar: Fieldwork in the Aegean: Archaeologists’ paradise? 27 Jan.
