Join me in this archaeological tour! As your personal PhD Archaeologist working in Paestum I will be happy to share my knowledge with you. Poseidonia was founded by the Greeks at the end of the 7th century BC. The name was related to the Greek god Poseidon, protector of the sea. This archaeological area is now one of the best preserved cities from the times of Greek colonization. We will go to discover the evolution of this ancient city from the Greeks to the Romans through the ruins of temples dedicated to Athena, Hera, Apollo and Zeus. In Paestum there is also an incredible National Museum that show us some of the most important artifacts of Greek and Roman times, where is possible to see the painted Tomb of the Diver, a masterpiece of 2500 years ago. So use this time to ask me all the questions and curiosities you have about archaeology and greek mithology. Poseidonia/Paestum is a wonderful cultural heritage protected by the UNESCO and I truly suggest to visit this place.
The tour is divided in two parts. During the visit of Archeological Area I'll show you the Ruins of the temples, the Heroon (the tomb of the mythical founder Hero of the Greek city), the Roman Forum and the Roman residential area. In the National Museum I'll explain you the stone frieze that decorated the temple of Hera, some artifacts produced as offerings for gods, armor and weapons of Roman warriors and the painting tombs. *** THIS TOUR CAN BE CUSTOMIZED 100% TO YOUR NEEDS AND REQUESTS AND FOR MORE PEOPLE WITH A DIFFERENT PRICE ***
