Dear friends of underwater archaeology,
This week is the 102nd AHEPA Family Supreme Convention being held in Larnaca, Cyprus. During this convention, the film that the HAES made for the Ministry of Culture’s Ephorate of Underwater Antiquities for the Mentor Shipwreck Excavation Programme was shown privately to AHEPA members to showcase the progress of the HAES and its support of Greek government archaeological projects. We hope one day to have an official Memorandum of Understanding, though we will always operate in a supporting role of the Ephorate of Underwater Antiquities, Aristotle University in Thessaloniki, and possibly other institutions. We wish to emphasize that our organization is a support organization chartered to provide technology and other assistance to underwater research.
We look forward to the release of the submitted film by the Ministry of Culture. At that time, we will provide link to where it is posted. If allowed, we will self-host the film on our vimeo and YouTube channels.
