• Returning to Kastro
  
  For the past five years, Peggy Mook hasn't given much of her time to the Kastro project.

  But due to the death of a colleague, the associate professor of classical studies in the Department of World Languages and Cultures will revisit the major excavation of the settlement that existed on the Greek island of Crete from the Late Bronze Age through early Archaic.

  Mook has completed her inital work on the publication (Kavousi IV: The Kastro. The Late Minoan IIIC through Orientalizing Pottery), writing essentially half the book. But when her co-author and University of Minnesota faculty member William D.E. Coulson died unexpectedly in 2001, completion of the manuscript was delayed.

  In the meantime, Mook was committed to be the field director and pottery specialist for another excavation on Crete, the Azoria Project, on which many Iowa State students participated. Azoria is located nearby the Kastro and initial excavation was just completed last summer.

  "Now I have to go back and finish up the Kastro work," Mook said.
