Kasos Maritime Archaeological Project, or KMAP, is a collaborative effort between the Institute of Historical Research of the National Hellenic Research Foundation and the Ephorate of Underwater Antiquities of the Greek Ministry of Culture. The project aims to explore and uncover the rich maritime history of the Kasos Island region through archaeological research. We have created a 10 min production highlighting our scientific work. A subtitled version is forthcoming. Stay tuned!!
