Two most ancient journeys in the Aegean
Seize a rare chance to gaze upon two seldom-seen antiquities, unearthed from the National Archaeological Museum's rich storeroom as part of its Unseen Museum series. The relics temporarily on display include an oared ship, engraved 45 centuries ago on a ‘frying pan’ vessel from Syros, and a unique bronze model of a 16th century BC ship, embellished with Minoan and Theran iconography. The two sea-related objects can be viewed in the altar room until mid-October. On Sunday September 15 and Friday September 27, curious visitors can also chat with museum archeologists from 1pm onwards about how prehistoric sea farers managed to make their ancient journeys for thousands of years across the Aegean, rising to the challenges of the rough seas.
