Pottery in the house of Zeus
Our journey
through time begins at our laboratory, which is located in Psichro, at the
Lassithi plateau, a few meters below the cave where according to legend, the
god of gods, Zeus, was born.
Initially, we will
make a small demonstration of pottery by creating some specific Minoan designs,
which have been found in many excavations on Crete, and at the same time we
will be explaining their use and history.
Afterwards, with
the help of the pottery wheel and with our own guidance, each visitor will make
their own unique object according to their character and will. At the end of
the demonstration, you will take with you the ceramics you will have created
yourselves.
Finally, we will
go to a specially designed area above the lab, where we have a showroom with
all of our creations, and you will have the chance to taste local drinks, soft
drinks, coffee, fruits and vegetables.
