The Agora Notebooks are the primary records of the Athenian Agora Excavations of the American School of Classical Studies in Greece (http://agathe.gr). The notebooks contain photographs, drawings, and original field notes, making it possible to recover the archaeological context of every object found. The version of the Agora Notebooks released here contains 319 publicly available notebooks. You can browse the notebooks, use the annotations for navigation, and download the notebooks for offline reading. Some of the areas at the Agora are still under study and being prepared for publication. For the time being, those scholars with a confirmed active publication assignment may contact the agora offices for a username and password to access all 937 notebooks. There are limitations as to the use of such access. This app was created by Bruce Hartzler and made possible with the collaboration of The Packard Humanities Institute (PHI) and a grant from the European Economic Area (EEA).
