The ancient town of Akrai (Greek ’Ακραι, Latin Acrae, Agris, Acrenses) is located to the west of the modern town of Palazzolo Acreide, in south-eastern Sicily, the province of Syracuse. A cooperation agreement between the University of Warsaw and Parco Archeologico di Eloro e della villa del Tellaro e delle Aree Archeologiche di Noto e dei Comuni Limitrofi served as a basis for non-destructive research, carried out in 2009 and 2010, within the territory of the ancient town, including geodetic survey, kite photography and geophysical surveying (ChoWANIEC, MAłKoWSKI, MISIEWICz 2010). Later on, two excavation seasons were carried out. The fieldwork in 2012 wasacontinuation of previous fieldworks (ChoWANIEC, GUzzARdI 2012). The following participants took part in that exT cavation season, which lasted from 15 September to 17 october: dr Monika Rekowska, dr Urszula Wicenciak, Marcin Matera MA, Tomasz Więcek MA, Marta Fituła MA, Piotr zakrzewski MA, Renata Kucharczyk MA, and twelve students of the Institute of Archaeology of the University of Warsaw. 1 Theexcavations in 2012 were possible thanks to the grant of the Polish National Science Centre (N N109 104940), the grant of the Polish Ministry of Science and higher Education (SPUB 4815/E-343/SPU/ 2012/3), as well as private sponsors.
