EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of history coming to life at the archaeological site of Gortynas, Crete, Greece. Once the ancient Cretan capital during the Roman times, Gortynas has been the subject of intense archaeological exploration since the late 19th century. The Italian Archaeological School at Athens led the most recent excavations at this site, unearthing a wealth of historical treasures that have shed new light on the rich cultural heritage of this region. In the image, the remnants of ancient walls and ruins stand proudly against the clear blue sky, their weathered stones bearing the marks of time. The intricate patterns and designs etched into the stones speak of a civilization that thrived over two thousand years ago. The archaeologists, dressed in protective gear, can be seen meticulously sifting through the earth, their determined expressions reflecting the importance of their work. The excavations at Gortynas have revealed a wealth of historical finds, including an extensive network of underground cisterns, a large basilica, and a well-preserved mosaic floor. These discoveries have provided valuable insights into the daily life, religious practices, and architectural achievements of the ancient Cretans. As the sun casts long shadows over the ruins, the past comes alive, offering a glimpse into the history and culture of this fascinating region. The archaeological site of Gortynas serves as a testament to the enduring allure of history and the tireless efforts of scholars and archaeologists to uncover the secrets of the past.
