The researchers from Madeira Marco Freitas and Joana Santos, both linked to the Centre for Modern Archaeology Studies (CEAM), participated during the month of August in an international maritime archaeology campaign on the island of Aegina, in Greece. The participation of these researchers is part of the latest campaign of the "Aegina Harbour City Project", having been carried out at the invitation of the team responsible for the project.
The work focused on the study of the remains of the ancient port complex of the city of Aegina. This year's work focused especially on the recording and documentation of archaeological materials found in the waters surrounding the island.
This international collaboration represents an opportunity for CEAM researchers to contribute to the advancement of knowledge about ancient port infrastructure in the Mediterranean region, while also reinforcing the integration of the Madeiran institution in European research networks.
