DMANISI ONLINE

June 13, 2020

 

Due to the COVID-19 outbreak we had to cancel the DPFS 2020 season excavations.

Instead we offer the exceptional online opportunity: DMANISI ONLINE project!

The International Dmanisi Team will offer you online lectures covering all the topics of the field school from JUNE 15th through JULY 10th, 2020.
The lectures will continue for 4 weeks and will be held in English.
