Mochlos IIA : Period IV: The Mycenaean Settlement and Cemetery, the Sites

With contributions by Thomas M. Brogan and Sevi Triantaphyllou, with Costis Davaras, Nikos P. Papadakis, Chrysa Sophianou, Joanna Bending, Jerolyn E. Morrison, Dimitra Mylona, Maria Ntinou, Douglas P. Park, and David S. Reese. The results of excavations carried out at two Late Minoan III sites at Mochlos in eastern Crete are presented. The stratigraphy and architecture of a total of 31 tombs and 11 houses are discussed together with a complete list of artifacts, ecofacts, and skeletal remains from each context. The cemetery remains mirror the settlement remains, and the conclusions discuss how the two sites reflect each other. Rarely in Crete are a settlement and its cemetery both preserved, and it is extremely fortunate to be able to excavate both.
