Central Archaeological Council

Its present form and functions are regulated by Law 3028/2002,[1] but its origins date back to 1834, when the Central Committee (Κεντρική Ἐπιτροπὴ) of the Greek Archaeological Service was established. This was renamed to Archaeological Committee (Ἀρχαιολογικὴ Ἐπιτροπὴ) and given broader powers in 1899, to Archaeological Council (Ἀρχαιολογικόν Συμβούλιον) in 1910, and to Central Archaeological Council (Κεντρικό Αρχαιολογικό Συμβούλιο) in 1977.[2]

Its members are selected among scientists, educators, artists, and archaeologists. It is charged with the preservation and restoration of cultural monuments, the management of archaeological sites, the establishment and management of museums, and the supervision of research and excavation activities both by the local ephorates of antiquities as well as by the foreign archaeological institutes active in Greece.[2]
