Altar of the Twelve Gods and the Zea Harbour Project

Here are a couple of links which may be of interest. The first is to an article in the English version of the Greek newspaper Kathimerini. The piece  reports on the unearthing of the Altar of the Twelve Gods, in the area of the Athenian Agora, during renovation works on the Piraeus-Kifissia metro line:

The second is the new website of the Zea Harbour Project, a combined land and underwater archaeological investigation of the ancient harbours of Zea and Mounichia in the Piraeus. The project operates under the auspices of the Danish Institute at Athens:
