I recently started a degree in archaeology. I would really appreciate it very much, if anyone has information regarding archaeologists working on excavations in the West of Crete (Chania/Rethymno Areas). Even a name or a group with a point of contact would be most appreciated. Regards Keith.

One of Crete's best sites, in my opinion, and very much work in progress, is on the eastern end of your range at Eleftherna. The excavations have certainly been going on for the 6 years that we have lived here and there is evidence of new work each time we visit.

According to the book about the (completed) eastern sector of the site, one of the professors responsible for another sector still being excavated is Nikos Stampolidis. He's listed here http://www.uoc.gr/Department/index.html with contact details. (The website structure is odd & I can't post a link to the actual page with staff names. Click through to "Dept of History & Archaeology", select English and then choose "Academic Staff" from the "Department's Staff" dropdown).

Keith, you don't indicate at which university you are studying and I assume you are at undergraduate level. Obviously getting some experience under the belt is essential. The problem is that we are coming to the end of the main excavation period, with a few spilling over into September. Generally most of my colleagues are post-graduate, that is into MA level +. If you send me an email I can make direct you to some contact areas.
