The Archive is the official repository for the records of the British School at Athens and documents the history and activities of the School. Records date from the founding of the BSA in 1886 and include documents from BSA fieldwork projects, corporate papers, personal collections of BSA members and others associated with the School, various historical documents of travellers who came to Greece before the School was founded, a unique collection of drawings of Byzantine monuments, artwork, and a large photographic collection.
