NOTES
1. Marker placed following Goodison & Guarita [2005] 182. The 'small hill' is interpreted as the hill at F4595. This would put the marker to the ENE of Haghios Nikolaos church (F4596) as G&G suggest and very near the Topoguide marking for 'Minoan Tholos Tombs' at 34.9713 N, 24.905832 E
2. A photograph of this tomb is in Pelon [1976] CXLII, no. 3.
