The “Oracle of Athens”, the only oracle found in the Greek capital , was recently discovered at the archaeological site of Kerameikos by the German Archaeological Institute in Athens.

Jutta Stroszeck, who leads the group of archaeologists, talked to ANA-MPA about the importance of this finding.

Stroszeck has studied Classical and Christian archeology at Göttingen, Berlin and Erlangen and she has been working at Kerameikos site since 2012. She has been in Greece for 20 years and as she said, she is honored and very happy to participate in these excavations.
