This was an unprecedented exploration which has not yet been completed – Koudelka keeps visiting archaeological sites in Greece, Turkey, Tunisia, Algeria, Syria, Jordan, Egypt, Lebanon. As well as other Mediterranean countries. Searching not for the documents of the sites, but for the most perfect images of their existence.
