Over forty years of excavation, study, and publication activities related to the Pantanello Sanctuary have generated a large and unwieldy amount of data safeguarded by the Institute of Classical Archaeology (ICA), which produced it. As might be expected with any multidisciplinary project of this scale and longevity, the research collection was amassed by generations of scholars, students, and support staff from a range of disciplines and institutions. It thus reflects some radical technological and methodological changes as well as a wide array of perspectives, data management practices, and disciplinary requirements. Making a heterogeneous data collection like this accessible and useful

This is a first report of an ongoing, collaborative study by the National Preserve of Tauric Chersonesos and the Institute of Classical Archaeology, Austin, Texas of the chora of the Greek colony of Chersonesos in southwestern Crimea, Ukraine. It presents an overview of the problems with the basic literature, the goals of this interdisciplinary project, and the preliminary results of the first five years of collaboration. The topics and methodologies covered include the historical development of the chora in light of nearly a century of archaeological investigation and scholarship; the geographic and geomorphic characteristics of the chora; the topographical and archaeological features and recent changes to the land surface through space-based remote sensing; the excavation and conservation of an early Hellenistic period farm site; and the excavation of a multiphase fortified site on the eastern border of the chora, now under way.
