On Friday 10 October 2014, we had the pleasure of a visit by the Australian Ambassador to Greece, His Excellency, Mr John Griffin, and his partner, Mr Pakapat Thipayaprapai.
John Griffin had only recently taken up the post of Ambassador, so we were particularly privileged that he visited us so early in his term.
After meeting Professor Meg Miller and Dr Stavros Paspalas, two of the three Zagora Archaeological Project directors (Associate Professor Lesley Beaumont was not on site that day) in the Zagora dig hut, Stavros took John and Pakapat for a tour of each of the excavation areas around the site.
