Join us on this podcast as we are taken on an incredible journey through the ancient civilisations of Cyprus. In the ancient world, Cyprus was a major trading centre, and was invaded by countless empires.

Arts Wednesday talks to Craig Barker, Archeologist and Head of Public Engagement at the Chau Chak Wing Museum, University of Sydney. Craig has a PhD in classical archaeology from the University and has considerable archaeological fieldwork experience in Australia, Greece, Turkey and Cyprus. He is the director of the University of Sydney’s Paphos Theatre Archaeological Project excavating at the World Heritage listed site of Nea Paphos in Cyprus.
