The Temper project, ‘Training, Education, Management and Prehistory in the
Mediterranean’, has re-launched its project website as a resource for all
those interested in the interpretation of archaeological sites. As part of
the Temper project, site management plans and educational programmes will
be developed and piloted for five prehistoric sites around the
Mediterranean. Visitors to the website will be able to follow the results
of the research over the course of the project. In addition to information
on each of the archaeological sites, the website explores the issues
involved in the effective interpretation and presentation of prehistoric
remains. Regularly updated with news and results of the pilot projects, the
website will be of interest to anyone working with archaeological
collections or presenting archaeological sites to the public.
The Temper project is funded by the European Union as part of the Euromed
Heritage II programme. The project involves prehistoric sites in Turkey,
Greece, Malta and Israel. The TEMPER project partners are: University of
Cambridge, UK; Oxford Brookes University, UK; Economic and Social History
Foundation of Turkey; Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece; Israel
Antiquities Authority, Israel and Fondazzjoni Wirt Artna, Malta. The
project began in January 2002 and will run until June 2004.
