Heraklion Clay Workshop Guided Ancient Writing Lab

Menu & tasting

During this hands-on workshop, you will explore the fascinating world of Linear B, the earliest form of written Greek used more than 3,000 years ago. Guided by a Scholar of Linear B and a Master Life Coach, you will discover how ancient scribes recorded information on clay tablets while reflecting on the deeper meaning of symbols and human expression. Step by step, you will create your own clay tablet and inscribe symbols inspired by Linear B writing. Through this creative process, you will connect with the roots of Greek writing while also experiencing a gentle moment of reflection and inner exploration. At the end of the workshop, you will take home your handmade clay tablet as a meaningful reminder of your journey into the ancient origins of writing. “As part of the workshop, you will enjoy a small moment of Cretan hospitality with aromatic herbal tea and traditional biscuits.”
