Between 1900 and World War I three American archaeologists--Harriet Boyd
Hawes, Edith Hall Dohan, and Richard Seager--explored eastern Crete,
excavating settlements and tombs of the Neolithic, Minoan Bronze, and
Early Iron Age. The Cretan collection of The University Museum, the
largest and most representative of its kind outside Europe, is drawn
from these expeditions. The collection includes pottery, metal, and
stone objects.
