The story of Swedish archaeology in Greece begins long before the official inauguration of the Swedish Institute on May 10, 1948. Drawing on archival material and personal experiences, Berit Wells and Arto Penttinen narrate the adventures of 17th-century Swedish travelers and the quests of legendary figures like Sam Wide and Axel W. Persson, whose excavations at Kalaureia and Asine laid the foundations for the extensive, and often ground-breaking, work undertaken by Swedish archaeologists in Greece. Go behind the scenes of completed and ongoing fieldwork at: Asine· Dendra· Midea· The Berbati Valley· Messenia· The Asea Valley· Chania (Crete)· Kalaureia (Poros).
