Precious archaeological finds are now in the premises of the Thessaloniki Archaelogical Museum, in northern Greece, where is taking place an important exhibition with an impressive title as ”The Greek and the Phoenicia in the Mediterranean crossroads”. This very interesting exhibition can be visited until June 20th, 2012 and it deeply focuses on the deep connections between these two great civilizations of the Mediterranean, who traded both goods and cultures for many centuries. Two are the parallel paths of the exhibit presented: the first one underlines how the connections between the two people developed over time, starting at the beginning of the Late Copper Age till the destruction of Phoenician cities by Alexander the Great around 333 b.C. and Hellenization of the East. The second path focuses on the sectors of cooperation between the two civilizations, such as art, religion and the development of the alphabet.
The Director of the Archaelogical Musem Polyxeni Adam explains that the goal of this exhibition is ”The great possibility to show interactions between the Greek and the Phoenicia and the other way round”. The exhibition’s curator Liana Stefani also explained “This exhibition was organized according to the development in time of the relations between the Greek and the Phoenicia from the XI century b.C. until the conquer of Thyros in 332 b.C.”
The archaelogical finds exhibited in the Thessaloniki Archaelogical Museum come from several museums, including the Beirut American University (UAB) Museum, the Delphi Museum, the Athens National Archaeological Museum, the Heraklion Archeological Museum in Crete and from eight Antiquities Superintendant Departments from all over Greece.
The total amount of the exhibited archaelogical finds are 131 and among them there are: vases found in the tombs of Knossos and Archanes and other vases, shaped like birds, that were found in the Proto-Minoan tombs of Crete, a marble column of Hermia coming from Tyros found in Dilos, a small copper statue of a “God who hits” (this is its name), an ivory comb and other exquisitely made items. There are also detailed geographical maps: they testify the periods when trade relations between ancient Greece and the Phoenicia were at their closest and most intense.
A scientific catalogue of the exhibition will soon be published, according to Museum sources, while a day of scientific studies is to be organized in spring 2012: on this occasion, some sector experts will explain the most recent studies carried out on the issue of Greek-Phoenicia relations in the Mediterranean.
