| Background |
| Site Description | The church of Agios Mamas is a 10th century chapel located on the island of Naxos and is believed to be the oldest standing christian structure on the island. Originally consecrated as a Greek Orthodox cathedral, the structure was converted into a Catholic church by 1207 CE. The building was dedicated to Agios Mamas, an important saint for local people who is considered to be the protector of shepherds. The site structure is cruciform in shape and features several noteworthy sculptures and frescoes inside. Due to safety considerations and planned restoration the site is currently closed to the public. |
| Project Description | In the summer of 2016, CyArk in collaboration with the Hellenic Republic Ministry of Culture, Ephorate of Antiquities of the Cyclades, documented three cultural heritage sites on the island of Naxos. CyArk completed laser scanning (Faro X330 laser scanner) along with aerial and terrestrial photogrammetry (with a Canon 5D and Phantom 4 Pro drone). The documentation of the church will be used by the Ephorate of Antiquities to complement existing documentation of the site and to help with planned restoration. |
