The Mazotos Shipwreck Project 2023 fieldwork season has been successfully completed. We are already looking forward to the next one!
We would like to thank everyone who participated and made this an unforgettable and productive field season.

The work continues on land!
The finds are photographed, measured and documented. The underwater photogrammetry photoshoots are also processed, and the daily site plan and database are updated.

All hands on deck!
The team springs into action as soon as the finds surface, as each of them will need to be properly cleaned, emptied, and photographed on board. The Mazotos database is constantly updated throughout the day.

The Mazotos Shipwreck Project: Let’s dive in!
Working in deep waters is a demanding but, at the same time, an exciting task. Artefacts are carefully labelled and documented in situ through photogrammetry, before they are prepared for lifting.

The #ancient_harbour of Amathus was constructed during the turbulent period of the Diadochi of Alexander the Great. However, its history remains an enigma, as it was never completed.
@andikat_project
The first #diving_archaeological_route in Cyprus will be created around the ancient harbour of Amathus, one of the best-preserved ancient harbour structures in the eastern Mediterranean.
Stay tuned for more updates!
