Introduction

Welcome to "Periplous", a sea voyage into the history and underwater archaeological remains of ancient Epidaurus, an area inhabited since the 3rd millennium BC (Bronze Age). We will depart from the ancient city's harbour -still in use today- and head for our destination, a Roman rural villa submerged for centuries. Our stops on the way, will help us "dive" into the past through short digital “Snapshots” of what life was like. You will also learn about the hard work of archaeologists, divers, and conservators to protect the region's underwater heritage.

Our journey is about to begin. Enjoy the ride!
