Sparta Basilica Project 2000-2001: Season 2000
Restoration/Conservation/Reconstruction:
The first season of the Sparta Basilica project took place in June. This season proved to be a successful collaboration between the EBA and the School. The aims of the project were: to clean the site in order for a new state plan of the basilica and its adjacent buildings; to reconstruct the work of Cuttle, one of the previous excavators; and to examine the basilica in detail. Cuttle's excavation trenches were reconstructed and discrepancies between his notes and the standing remains recorded. All architectural fragments were recorded and a number of architectural phases and floor levels defined. The team also completed the majority of elevations of the church and peribolos walls.
Active in 2000.
