The National Archaeological Museum is widely regarded as one of the great archaeological museums in the world, housing the largest collection of ancient Greek antiquities anywhere, spanning prehistory through late antiquity under one roof. Its current Neoclassical building, designed by the architect Ludwig Lange with later modifications by Ernst Ziller, broke ground in 1866 and wasn't fully completed until 1889, originally opening under the name "Central Archaeological Museum" before being renamed the National Archaeological Museum by royal decree in 1888.
Among its signature holdings is the Antikythera Mechanism, a genuine ancient Greek geared bronze device recovered from a Roman-era shipwreck off the island of Antikythera in 1901 and dated to roughly the 2nd century BCE. Built from more than 30 hand-cut bronze gears, it was designed to model and predict astronomical events, including lunar phases and eclipses, and is widely described today as the earliest known analog computer — a level of mechanical sophistication historians didn't think the ancient world was capable of until the mechanism itself proved otherwise.
The museum's Mycenaean collection includes the gold funerary treasures Heinrich Schliemann excavated from the royal shaft graves at Mycenae in 1876, among them the so-called Mask of Agamemnon — an identification modern archaeology considers almost certainly mistaken, since the mask has been dated to roughly the 16th century BCE, centuries before any historical Trojan War. Elsewhere in the collection, the museum's Cycladic figurines — slender, minimalist marble figures carved between roughly 3200 and 2000 BCE on the islands of the Cyclades — represent one of the earliest coherent sculptural traditions in Europe, and their stark, abstracted forms are frequently cited as an influence on 20th-century modern artists including Pablo Picasso, Constantin Brâncuși, and Amedeo Modigliani.
