Abstract

The Annual Inselreise of the German Archæological Institute at Athens was this year extended to the coast of Asia Minor, so as to include Assos and the Troad. For the first time Dr. Döorpfeld had an opportunity of expounding to an audience of his colleagues the remarkable discoveries made during his two last seasons at Hissarlik.The object of the Island Tour is to visit in the course of a few days a number of sites on the Greek coast or islands, which are otherwise difficult of access—Rhamnus, Eretria, Oropos, Delos, and others. The hospitality of the Institute finds room on board its steamer for scholars and travellers from all parts of Europe. The party of fifty on board the Ἔλπις spoke nine or ten different languages, and included representatives from the four Athenian Schools of Archæological, architects, artists, schoolmasters, and numerous professors.
