Beyond the Throne

27 October 2022

Beyond the Throne: the archaic finds of the Spartan sanctuary of Apollo Amyklaios is the title of a Sparta Live! Webinar, which will be delivered by Dr. Adrien Delahaye (The Amykles Research Project; École française d’Athènes).

Beyond the Throne: About

This webinar aims to present some of the latest preliminary results from the excavations carried out by the Amykles Research Project in the Amyklaion sanctuary. Dr. Delahaye’s talk will focus on the 6th and 5th centuries BC, which corresponds to the sanctuary’s main monumentalization phase that reshaped the whole site. While the history of research on the site shows a major interest in the so-called “Throne” temple of Apollo, recent excavations have shed new light on the pottery and small votive material of the Archaic period, in particular of the 6th century BC.

Sparta Live! webinar series is delivered by The Centre for Spartan & Peloponnesian Studies of the University of Nottingham and the City (Dimos) of Sparti.
