Archaeological Museum of Karpathos
Αρχαιολογικό Μουσείο Καρπάθου
A small state museum in Pigadia holding what has come out of the island's scattered sites — Arkesia, the Roman remains near Lefkos, the rock tombs around the capital — pottery, inscriptions, grave goods and mosaic fragments. It is one room and a good half-hour, and it is the only place on Karpathos that puts the island's long history in order.
