\u201cArchaeomythologies\u201d is an interdisciplinary art and research residency programme dedicated to the legacy of archaeologist Marija Gimbutas and her research in Southern Europe.

Drawing on Gimbutas\u2019 interdisciplinary approach, the programme explores how water has shaped human settlements, rituals, symbolic systems and cultural imagination from prehistory to the present day.<\/span><\/p>\n
