At the quarries of Alyki
Activities Item Type Metadata
Description
Imagine that you want to work in the early Christian quarries of Alyki and you must convince the manager of the quarry, the arch-quarryman, that you are capable.
You must know how to remove marble blocks with hand tools, to transfer and lift them with machines using human force and deliver them to the suitable ship. This work is not only tiring. It requires specialized knowledge for the processing of marble, but also knowledge of the area of the quarry. Can you prove to the arch-quarryman that you have the knowledge?
Let us begin. You should walk around the area and check if your knowledge is accurate.
