Archaeological Collection of Anafi

On the small Cycladic island of Anafi, a modest room in the old primary school holds the Archaeological Collection of Anafi, a local gathering of pottery, inscriptions and small votive objects. These finds come from the ancient city whose ruins lie near the modern village, and they span the Archaic, Classical, Hellenistic, Roman and Late Antique periods. Assembled without grand resources, the collection offers plain evidence of daily life on a small island: trade, worship and the quiet routines that connected Anafi to the wider Greek world across many centuries.
