The past twenty years have been extraordinary in Minoan archaeology:
G. Rethemiotakis discovered a new Palace at Galatas;
the Shaws excavated monumental harbor facilities at Kommos;
M. Tsipopoulou excavated fascinating buildings at Aghia Photia,
Petras, Halasmenos, and elsewhere.
In addition to these new projects, many excavations initiated at
the beginning of the twentieth century have either continued or been
revived, and much of Crete has been systematically surveyed.
The Institute for Aegean Prehistory built a new research center in
Pachyammos. Dozens of international conferences have provided
opportunities for innovative scholarship. At a time when much of the
rest of the academic world and particularly academic presses are
financially threatened, new scholarly journals and monograph series
have been launched in Belgium, Italy, Great Britain, Poland, Greece,
and the United States.
