Antonis Chaliakopoulos

I am an archaeologist and museum professional exploring the modern reception of the classical world. I hold an MSc in Museum Studies from the University of Glasgow and a BA in History and Archaeology from the University of Athens (NKUA), where I am currently a PhD candidate. Since 2020, I have been working at TheCollector.com.

Myths for Modernity represents the evolution of my personal blogging journey. It is a dedicated space for synthesizing the concepts, theories, and stories I encounter through my academic research and personal inquiry.

My writing has been featured in various publications, including TheCollector, Philosophy Now, Historic UK, Sensible Collector, EfSyn.gr, Huffington Post Greece, mixanitouxronou.gr, and fractalart.gr.
