Unsettled Settlements: Documenting Site Abandonment and Transformation in Modern Greece
The Deserted Villages Project is a multidisciplinary study of 19th- and 20th-century
settlements in Greece. The short period of inhabitation in these settlements
presents opportunities to document evidence of site formation, decline, and
transition using a variety of methodologies. Two case studies will be presented.
In the mountains of Phocis, villages founded in the mid-19th century and
burned by the Germans during World War II are documented through traditional
and GPS survey, UAV based aerial photography, close range photogrammetry,
and the collection of oral histories. On the coast of Macedonia, a Cold
War settlement for the Voice of America radio station near Kavala is documented
through terrestrial photography, GIS, and video. The settlement, occupied
from 1972 to 2006, presents a short-lived example of American domestic architecture
transplanted into the landscape of rural Greece

This article compares demographic and geospatial data for Greek immigrant communities in Harrisburg and neighboring Lancaster to highlight the different challenges and opportunities of Greek communities during the era of City Beautiful
