Project Information
Eleon Learning Project
The Eleon Learning Project aims to translate academic knowledge into engaging and informative learning materials for k-12 students and the curious public.
Our learning resources utilize the site of ancient Eleon and the EBAP excavations as a case study for learning about the ancient Greek world. Our materials are aligned with the British Columbia social studies curriculum and the Historical Thinking Concepts. Suggestions for modification are provided and we invite educators to adjust where needed.
The StoryMaps and Educator Resources were written by Devon Lohrasbe, a PhD student at the University of Victoria.
Questions, comments, and feedback are welcome! Send a note to devon.lohrasbe@gmail.com

Eastern Boeotia Archaeological Project (EBAP)
The Eastern Boeotia Archaeological Project (EBAP) is a synergasia (collaboration) of the Ephorate of Antiquities of Boeotia, based at the Archaeological Museum of Thebes, and the Canadian Institute in Greece.
The project is currently co-directed by Alexandra Charami (EAB), Brendan Burke (University of Victoria), and Bryan Burns (Wellesley College) and focused on the excavations at ancient Eleon. This site, located by Arma in eastern Boeotia has evidence from the Mycenaean Age, the Archaic-Classical periods, and Medieval times – fascinating periods of Greece’s past.
The long-term goals of EBAP are to document and interpret the evidence for the land use, settlement patterns and burial practices resulting from the human occupation of eastern Boeotia over an extended chronological period.
