Support a team of Belgian archaeologists

Take part in the Sissi archaeological project in Crete,

An exciting archaeological and human adventure

in the footsteps of a vanished civilisation, at the origins of our own ...

by supporting a team of researchers from UCLouvain, Belgium!

Located on the north-east coast of Crete, the major site of Sissi, close to the famous palace of Malia, offers rare and precious evidence for a period of history and a civilisation that is still poorly understood, that of the brilliant Minoan culture of the 3rd and 2nd millennia BC.
