GENERAL SITE TYPE  Pottery

TYPE

1.    Pottery.   Papadopoulos [1979], 37    'A MH Minyan kantharos (PM. 1026) comes from an excavated MH tomb there.'


PERIOD (High Chronology)

1. Middle Helladic: (2000 BC - 1600 BC)
    a.    Papadopoulos [1979]: 37, 'N, MH, LH (?)'

NOTE

1.  This point is described by Papadopoulos (PA1, p. 36, '67 - 68. Akrata, Silivaniotika') as 'work on the national road from Corinth to Patras revealed a neolithic settlement, at the locality Krathion-Silivaniotika. A MH Minyan kantharos (PM. 1026) comes from an excavated MH tomb there.' Sylivaniotika (F795) sits on a low bluff (about 100 m) facing the Gulf of Corinth and bounded on its north by the road mentioned by Papadopoulos (the E.O. Korinthou-Patron). I placed the mark in Sylivaniotika on the edge of the bluff and about 60 meters from the road. It is directly above a concrete reinforcing wall. I estimate that this is within 200 m. of the find spot. I do not know if anyone knows exactly where the find spot is. PM. 1026 is the Patras Museum Catalogue Number.
