I couldn't establish that this meets WP:NOTABILITY, and it has been tagged for notability for 7 years (Carlossuarez46). Possibly worth a merge to National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, where it is not mentioned at present. Old, but couldn't establish that it is notable.

Keep. Certainly not the most famous museum in Athens, but it seems to have been a historically significant institution, as discussed in a variety of sources, including extensive discussion in the book Physical Anthropology, Race and Eugenics in Greece (1880s–1970s) [1] as well as coverage in other books such as [2][3][4]. --Arxiloxos (talk) 19:49, 15 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Per Arxiloxos.♦ Dr. Blofeld 20:01, 15 April 2015 (UTC) @Boleyn: I'm aware that there's a few Greek museums stubs which are dubious, Hoverfish sorted out a lot of them. I really do think you'd be better off creating a list of ones you have issues with and discuss them with Hoverfish and the Greek project rather than taking them to AFD individually.♦ Dr. Blofeld 20:00, 15 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

keep Should not have been tagged for notability in the first place. (User:Maunus, logged off)169.228.146.30 (talk) 20:32, 15 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This museum is an entity of its own since 1886, it has research and projects going on all over Greece. It doesn't need merging with the University of Athens. But if the nominator finds it "worth merging" elsewhere, then it would have been better to suggest merge it rather than AfD it. I think this one passes comfortably notability criteria.
