Zea harbour project: preliminary report 2009-2010

Resumé

During the 2009 and 2010 seasons, the Zea Harbour Project
(ZHP), under the Danish Institute at Athens and
supervised by the Ephorate of Underwater Antiquities,
conducted surface cleaning, excavation, survey dives, and
digital survey in the two ancient naval harbours of the
Piraeus: Mounichia (modern Mikrolimano; Figs. 1‑2)
and Zea (today also called Pashalimani; Figs. 1, 3). The
Carlsberg Foundation has generously provided the funding
for our fieldwork and research. The following report
summarises the most significant results of the 2009 and
2010 campaigns.
