2013–2014 marked the mid-point in the School's current five-year research programme, when long-planned projects reached fruition and new initiatives and collaborations gained pace. Established strengths were developed (in the Fitch Laboratory, the Knossos Research Centre and in our long-standing field projects) and numerous new opportunities exploited. Archaeology remains central, and it was gratifying that Heritage Daily's top-10 archaeological discoveries worldwide in 2013 included the Neolithic settlement at Koutroulou Magoula with its exceptional collection of figurines (www.heritagedaily.com/2013/12/top-10-archaeological-discoveries-for-2013/100570; Fig. 33; ID1889, ID2762, ID2902). The Koutroulou Magoula Project is a collaboration between the School and the Ministry of Culture and Sport directed by Nina Kyparissi-Apostolika (Director Emerita, EPSNE) and Yannis Hamilakis (Southampton). A programme of 3D scanning of the Koutroulou figurines conducted in 2013–2014 is revealing much important new detail of dress, jewellery and anatomy.
