Abstract
The Projects in Field Archaeology program of Michigan State University in 1977 conducted five missions in Greece and Italy to provide low-altitude aerial imagery at Archaeological sites. Sites in the Cycladic Islands include those on Melos, Kea, and Paros; in the Peloponnese, the Sanctuary of Zeus at Nemea; and in Italy, the Roman Villa of Oplontis at Torre Annunziata. A newly designed pressurized aerodynamic kite-balloon proved a marked improvement over models used in Mediterranean research on earlier missions. A discussion of the pioneer balloon work of P. L. O. Guy in 1930 furnishes an introduction to the report.
