The National and Kapodistrian University of Athens is one of the few academic institutions in Greece that has its own archaeological museum belonging to the School of Philosophy. The museum’s archaeological collection was recently enriched with the donation of approximately 855 antiquities from the collection of Eleni Martinou, covering a time span from early Cycladic civilization to Byzantine times. University students now have the opportunity to study the antiquities of major civilizations just right next to the university’s amphitheaters.
