Английская Википедия:Ephor (archaeology)
Шаблон:Short description In Greece, ephor (Шаблон:Lang-el) is a title given to the head of an archaeological ephorate (Шаблон:Lang-el), or archaeological unit. Ephors are responsible to the Ministry of Culture and Sports.
Most ephorates are responsible for a particular region of Greece. However, the Ephorate of Underwater Antiquities has jurisdiction over underwater sites across the whole of Greece,[1] as does the Ephorate of Private Archaeological Collections, while two Ephorates of Palaeoanthropology and Speleology exist, one for northern and one for southern Greece.Шаблон:Sfn
History
The title of ephor was first used in archaeological circles for Andreas Moustoxydis, who was appointed by Ioannis Kapodistrias in October 1829 as 'Director and Ephor' of the first national archaeological museum, then on the island of Aegina.Шаблон:Sfn In 1834, the Greek Archaeological Service was established by the Archaeological Law of 10/22 May,Шаблон:Sfn which also formally established the position of Ephor General of Antiquities (Шаблон:Lang-el), first held by Ludwig Ross after the abortive tenure of the architect Adolf Weissenberg.Шаблон:Sfn Ross had previously held the title of 'Ephor' of Antiquities of the Peloponnese, from 1833.Шаблон:Sfn
Until the mid-1870s, the Greek Archaeological Service consisted entirely of the Ephor General himself, sometimes supported by a personal assistant.Шаблон:Sfn In 1871, the privately organised Archaeological Society of Athens, which had taken on some of the state's responsibility for excavating and managing cultural heritage,Шаблон:Sfn began to appoint its own travelling ephors, known as 'apostles'. The primary duties of these 'apostles' were to conduct archaeological work throughout Greece, to combat archaeological looting and the illegal trade in antiquities, and to persuade citizens to hand over antiquities, particularly those acquired illegally, to the care of the state.Шаблон:Sfn The first of these was Panagiotis Stamatakis, whose work formed the basis for several public archaeological collections throughout Greece;Шаблон:Sfn he was followed in 1874 by Athanasios Dimitriadis, in 1880 by Dimitrios Philios, in 1882 by Christos Tsountas, in 1884 by Vasilios Leonardos, in 1891 by Andreas Skias and in 1894 by Konstantinos Kourouniotis.Шаблон:Sfn From the 1870s, the Archaeological Service began to employ its own ephors, expanding continuously until the early 1910s.Шаблон:Sfn These ephors generally had responsibility for a particular region of Greece: Stamatakis, for example, was recruited in 1875 to oversee antiquities in Central Greece.Шаблон:Sfn
In 1909, following the Goudi coup and the so-called 'mutiny of the superintendents' among the ephors of the Archaeological Service,Шаблон:Sfn the Ephor General Panagiotis Kavvadias was removed from office, and the post of Ephor General abolished.Шаблон:Sfn The title was briefly reintroduced in the 1960s, and occasionally used by Spyridon Marinatos during the Regime of the Colonels, then abolished again in 1982.Шаблон:Sfn
Though the titles of ephor and ephorate remain for the regional units, the professional head of the Greek Archaeological Service is typically referred to as the 'director-general' or 'General Inspector' of Antiquities.Шаблон:Sfn
Reorganisation of 2014
Before 2014, the archaeological ephorates of Greece were divided both by geographical region and the historical periods of the remains for which they were responsible. They were organised as follows:Шаблон:Sfn
- Thirty-nine Ephorates of Prehistoric and Classical Antiquities.
- Twenty-eight Ephorates of Byzantine Antiquities.
- Two Ephorates of Palaeoanthropology and Speleology.
- The Ephorate of Underwater Antiquities.
- The Ephorate of Antiquity Dealers and Private Archaeological Collections.
In 2014, under Presidential Decree no. 104, the regional ephorates were amalgamated into a single ephorate for each regional unit, covering all chronological periods.[2]
