DONATIONS

The unfortunate period of civil war during the late 1980's and early 1990's saw a number of challenges for the expedition. The material infrastructure suffered dramatically and consequently, a more basic lifestye was adopted by the archaeologists regarding the living and working conditions.

The current expedition has made great efforts since 2001 to restore the expedition infrastructure and especially in more recent years in response to a strenghening economy in Georgia. Both the Georgian government and international funds have helped in the continuing restoration of the local museum and expedition base in which sits a new lab for on site analysis and restoration.

It is our intention to continue this refurbishment and the development of the base infrastructure.
