He has been associated with the American School’s Athenian Agora excavations since 1966, first as Field Supervisor, later as Assistant Director, and since 1994 as Director. Dr. Camp is one of the best known archaeologists in the world and is regarded as the foremost expert on the topography of Athens and Attica. He was the Andrew W.

The A. G. Leventis Foundation is the outcome of the vision of the Cypriot entrepreneur Anastasios G. Leventis (1902–1978), with its focus on society, education and culture. Now in its fourth decade, the Foundation retains its adherence to these priorities, keenly supporting the dissemination of Greek and Cypriot cultural heritage, as well as extensive public benefits programs, pioneering environmental protection projects, and medical research. |
