Story · Kerameikos Archaeological Museum

You're standing at the Kerameikos Museum, a small archaeological museum right in the middle of the excavations of the ancient Athenian district of Kerameikos. Have a look around. The ruins you see were once a large cemetery, and almost everything inside this museum came out of this very ground.
