Kyriaki Lentzi and Yorgos Facorellis (specialized conservators) participates in the 6th Symposium of the Hellenic Society for Archaeometry and presents the research with the title ‘Conservation methods of Edo period Japanese paper garment ‘Kamiko’’ from the ATOPOS Collection. The theme of the research is about the qualitative and semi-quantitative elemental analysis of a Japanese paper garment ‘Kamiko’ and the conservation methods.

The HSA is a vibrant group of researchers who over the years have made a substantial contribution to the understanding of Greeces Cultural Heritage.
The HSA Symposium proceedings are aimed particularly at young researchers working on Greek materials and landscapes as a venue for presenting their work. This volume comprising thirty-two papers is divided in two parts: the first deals with materials (ceramics, glass, metal, paintings, paper) and the second with the landscape and its multifaceted aspects (dating, prospection, visualisation). Within each section issues of conservation, dating, and computer applications are interwoven together with aspects of intangible heritage.
