Department of History and Archaeology

The Department organises and hosts conferences, symposia and workshops regularly, in order to promote scientific research and to enhance international and interdisciplinary cooperation. Within this frame it co-organises, in cooperation with the Archaeological Service of Crete, a triennial conference entitled ‘Archaeological Research in Crete’. This conference, presenting the development of recent archaeological research throughout Crete, covers a broad chronological spectrum, ranging from the prehistoric through to the modern period.
