Michael Gfoeller has been traveling the world since 1979. He first visited Armenia in 1998, and developed a deep love for its ancient culture and civilization. He subsequently launched a private foundation, the Gfoeller Renaissance Foundation, to support archeological excavations and research in Armenia. His foundation has supported over 100 excavations, which have led to many important discoveries, including the oldest known wine making complex, uncovered at the Areni 1 cave. He remains actively involved in scientific research and cultural preservation in Armenia.
