Translated into English for the first time, The Archeologist is a landmark of Greek national literature. Karkavitsas published the book in 1904 as an allegory of Greek nationalism, stylized as a folktale about the illustrious Eumorphopoulos family. For centuries, the family had been persecuted by the Khan family, but when the Khan dynasty starts to topple, the Eumorphopoulos family resolves to regain their ancestral lands. The book attempts to dramatize the tensions in the Balkans at the turn of the twentieth century. This edition also has sea tales, including "The Gorgon".
