Nicolas Garriga

Nicolas Garriga is an archaeologist associated with the significant "dig of the century" taking place beneath Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris. This extensive excavation, initiated after the 2019 fire and during the cathedral's reconstruction, aims to uncover layers of history dating back to Roman times, approximately 2,000 years ago. The dig has already yielded a wealth of historical artifacts, including a 4th-century coin and a medieval jug, providing invaluable insights into the site's past. Garriga's involvement highlights the ongoing efforts to preserve and understand the rich historical and archaeological heritage of this iconic landmark. The project's depth and scope make it a crucial endeavor for historical research and the ongoing restoration of Notre Dame.
