Scientific paper

The ANTARES Collab oration is constructing a neutrino telescope to be operated at large depth in the Mediterranean Sea. As a qualification step before the deployment of the full-size detector, the Collab oration has constructed a final-design prototype line, which was successfully deployed in December 2002. In February 2003 a second prototype line equipp ed with instrumentation for environmental measurements was also deployed. Both lines were put into operation since March 2003, when they were successfully connected to the already deployed ANTARES electro-optical cable. In this contribution we illustrate the ma jor highlights from this prototyping effort: integration of the two lines, calibration in the lab oratory, marine and submarine operations, first results from the measurements collected underwater.
