Log Text: The museum is relatively small but includes many exciting artefacts, most notably the Dendra Panoply. Many of the displays discuss the locations of the finds. This would be a perfect place to visit before traveling to Tyrns or even Epidaurus.

Log Text: An amazing museum and well worth the price. I do note that due to funding reductions some galleries have been closed, I believe on a rotating basis. On the day of my visit, much of the ceramics collections, the Vase and Minor Objects Collection, were not accessible.

Newark Earthworks - Octagon
Date Added: 12th Sep 2010
Site Type: Misc. Earthwork
Country: United States (Great Lakes Midwest)
Visited: Yes on 25th Nov 2007
Newark Earthworks - Octagon submitted by bat400 on 25th Nov 2007. This photo was taken from the observing platform that is set on the east side of the connecting "road" between the circle and octagon in the "Octagon" earthwork site. Looking southwest toward the circle. As you can see, the enclosures are far too large to get a good idea of the geometry without actually walking the site.

Log Text: The village site is on a spit of land extending into a bay area. You can drive right into the area as a picnic area with shelterhouses is located there. The only visible evidence of the original village are midden mounds all around the perimiter - they are not particularly noticable although some of them are quite large.
The most notable feature is a strange, deteriorating Art Deco sculpture of a sort of pyramid of Indian men. This was once a fountain and pool depicting an "Indian Legand" which may have been entirely fabricated in the 20th century.
