The American School of Classical Studies at Athens is proud to announce the tremendous success of its Annual Gala, held on Thursday, May 7, 2026, at Gotham Hall in New York City.

We are pleased to announce the publication of Hesperia 95.1! Topics in this issue include an engraving of a warrior from LMB IIIA Ayia Irini on Kea, the relationship between inscriptions and images in Archaic Greece, four new pinakion fragments from the Athenian Agora, the colossus of Porto Raphti, and the account of the martyrdom of St. Demetrios and what it reveals about gladiatorial events and the stadium in Roman Thessaloniki.

On a warm August day in 1950, news of Edward Capps’s passing traveled quietly between Princeton and Athens. More than seventy-five years later, the American School of Classical Studies at Athens continues to reflect his vision and his belief that scholarship is sustained across generations.
