The workshop “Echoes: Reconstructing the life of traditional settlements through interactive experiences and 3D sound”, held on November 6, 2024 in the hospitable Multiplex of Art and Thought of Xanthi, offered an enchanting journey through time and local history. The audience, including city residents and select invited representatives of the local government, came in contact with a special experience that connected modern technologies with the authentic sound and pulse of everyday life of an old, multicultural Xanthi.
On Saturday, October 5, the Association of Katirliotes of Kalamaria organized the event “Former Kodra military camp: past, present, future”. The event was attended by Eleni Manakidou, Professor of Classical Archeology at the University of Athens. and Despoina Tsiafaki, Doctor of Classical Archeology and Research Director of the Athena Research Center, who participated with a lecture entitled: “The ancient settlement at Karabournaki: revealing the past through three decades of archaeological research by the AUTH”
? On Friday, September 27th, as part of the Mednight 2024 activities, we had the pleasure of hosting our young friends along with their parents at the “Athena” Research Center in Xanthi for the educational program “The Archaeologist’s Journey: From the Excavation to the Digital World.”
✍️ Our little archaeologists had the opportunity to learn firsthand the basic principles of archaeological excavation and digital archaeology through a series of interactive activities. Together, we dug, discovered “finds,” took photographs, wrote in archaeological journals, and recorded and identified pottery.
? We then explored aspects of digital archaeology, using modern technologies for excavation digitization and the creation of virtual exhibitions.
?️ We concluded this pilot event by drawing what we learned and what impressed us the most. See you next year!!!
