Summary
The June 1977 issue presents Io. Pisimisis’s documented proposal to found a Dimitsana Museum, linking finds from Paliokastro to an urgent need to repurpose available mansions as exhibition spaces. It stresses the Sparta Antiquities Ephorate’s overload across three prefectures and proposes a dedicated Arcadia Ephorate. The intervention urges the Brotherhood and authorities to act early to secure space, curation and visibility for heritage. Church events and community notices are also recorded.
