An International Workshop on seafaring in the Mediterranean of the Neolithic period
British School at Athens
Upper House (Director's Residence)
This Workshop will focus on seafaring in the Mediterranean of the Neolithic period and will stimulate discussion on the topic for featuring in the international documentary film Moving Stones. We aim to discuss how throughout the Neolithic period the seas, far from being obstacles, were major vectors of transportation and communication.
The event is part of the larger project “Europe’s Neolithic Bridge: Documenting and Disseminating the Neolithic Heritage of Anatolia”. This project aims to highlight the Anatolian archaeological heritage by means of a documentary film and a series of related conferences and gatherings in Turkey as well as in Greece and in Bulgaria.
