Powerhouse Museum Web ProducerLocal interest in Zagora has been growing since our public meeting at Chora on Thursday 17 October. So much so, that on the last two Saturdays, local residents were invited on a guided tour of the site – led by two of the Zagora Archaeological Project directors, Professor Meg Miller and Dr Lesley Beaumont. A large number of people attended even though news of the tours had spread mostly by word-of-mouth.
There has also been recent media interest in the project both in Greece and in Australia. Here are a few examples:
Article in The Australian newspaper
Article in Neoskosmos
Article in Greek Reporter
SBS World News story

Dear digging team,
Let me thank you for sharing your passion today on the Zagora site. We finally got some answers about this beautiful place that we have visited so much. Answers and new questions of course …. We will continue to follow your blog with full attention. Curious as we are, you might also see us (and the rest of the family) back soon.

Dear Brigitte and Bo
How lovely to hear from you after your visit to the site today!. Please do stay in touch with our website and blog, and feel free to comment any time. And we’re so pleased you share the passion. This is the sixth and last week of this 2013 excavation season so most of us will be gone after this weekend. But we hope to be back here around September next year. Keep checking the website and blog, and I will post information as it becomes available. Regards, Irma
