“…In the central and southern areas of the trench, the team discovered water pipes, a water outlet, and limestone and marble slabs, as well as black-glaze sherds and a black-glaze skyphos dating back to around 500 BC. The team also excavated a rubble stone wall that was initially discovered in 2019 (Romano and Voyatzis 2021), and excavations explored the northern quarter of the administrative building, exposing fieldstone interior walls, including a north-south wall measuring 11m, an east-west wall measuring 1.95m, and a 6m wall. The team found a large Doric capital and removed blocks from higher levels in the southern part of the trench.…”

‘Newsround’ offers a platform for new discoveries that do not appear within the specialist contributions of this year’s Archaeological Reports, but which nevertheless warrant emphasis, either as a result of their particular characteristics or for the contribution they make to broader archaeological narratives. This section is not intended to be exhaustive, but rather an overview of archaeological research in Greece. It comprises largely preliminary reports (results of excavations that took place up to and including August 2023, where possible) that complement the digital content made available through Archaeology in Greece Online (https://chronique.efa.gr). Due to the diachronic nature of a number of the sites, and for ease of reference, the material is organized geographically in the first instance and then chronologically (earliest to latest) within each section as far as possible.

“…At Olympia, Judith Barringer (2020) has completed a diachronic cultural history that insightfully dissects the immense literature about the sanctuary architecture. A digital project employed 3D recording to challenge the reconstructions of the peristyle of the Heraion (Sapirstein 2016), and the early ash altar and Pelopion have been subject to recent reinterpretation (Leonhardt 2018;Romano and Voyatzis 2021). A new review of the evidence recontextualizes early stoneworking in monumental buildings in the Corinthia (Scahill 2017).…”

The discipline of Greek architecture has been changing rapidly since the time of a major review published in 2011. The current study examines research published since 2012 about the prehistoric through to the Hellenistic eras in mainland Greece and the Aegean, along with the expansion of Greek architectural systems throughout the Mediterranean and Black Sea in the first millennium BC. A narrative discussing close to 300 works from recent years is bolstered by a quantitative analysis of the subjects treated in nearly 1,000 studies from the previous decade. Traditional foci of the discipline, such as palaces and sanctuaries, are being approached in new and methodologically sophisticated manners. A notable rise in the scrutiny of material remains suggests diverse new interests in planning and construction, from the scale of an individual architectural member up to a territorial defence network. The integration of recent digital and scientific methods has been remarkable, including widespread adoption of 3D recording and modelling, remote sensing, and compositional analysis. Certain architectural types – in particular fortifications, harbours, and urban planning – have received a great deal more attention than in past decades.
