Award-winning poet Ruth Padel will read her new poems inspired by the 'Snake Goddess' figurines found at Knossos (Crete) over a century ago. This event is part of the collaborative, international project 'The Many Lives of a Snake Goddess' and is organised under the auspices of the Institute of Greece, Rome and the Classical Tradition and the Bristol Poetry Institute.

The poetry reading will be preceded by a short archaeological and historical introduction by the members of the MLSG project.
