About me |
Regan Barr is a classically trained archaeologist with degrees from The University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati Christian University, and Midwest Christian College. His excavation experience includes:
- Jordan (at Abila of the Decapolis)
- Greece (at the Mycenaean citadel of Midea)
- Turkey (at Troy, the site of the Trojan War)
Regan and Amy Barr have always homeschooled their own three children. They founded The Lukeion Project in 2005, an educational endeavor devoted to making excellence in the Classics available outside the university classroom. At The Lukeion Project Regan's teaching responsibilities focus on Classical Attic Greek, Ancient Greek History, and Greek and Latin Word Roots. He also teaches a variety of workshops devoted to various interests within the Classical and Biblical World.
In 2008, The Lukeion Project began leading Family Tours to the Classical world. The inaugural tour, attended by 44 intrepid travellers, was to Italy. In 2009 our destination was rugged and dramatic Greece - both the mainland and the islands. In 2010, we visited wonderful Turkey - sites like Troy, Ephesus, Miletus, Sardis, Pergamum, and more. For 2011, we're back to Italy, but with a whole new tour and additional destinations. Lukeion Tours, unlike most tours, encourages families to travel together rather than leaving the kids at home. |
