PERIOD (High Chronology)

1. Early Cycladic: (3200 BC - 1850 BC)
    a.    Soterakopoulos [2004]: 74, 'ΠΚ. ΜΚ.'
    b.    Sampson and Tsourouni [2018]: 12, 'Early Cycladic'

2. Early Bronze Age: (3200 BC - 2100 BC)
    a.    Belmont and Renfrew [1964]: 398, 'The site can scarcely be as late as the Middle Bronze Age and is probably to be ascribed to the Early Bronze Age, a view supported by Mr. Bialor's study of the obsidian.'
    b.    Simpson and Dickinson [1979]: 308, ' ..., a scatter of N or EB pottery is reported.'

3. Keros-Syros: (2600 BC - 2200 BC)
    a.    Belmont and Renfrew [1964]: 396, 'It is clear that Delos as well as Mykonos fell within the sphere of the Syros group in the Early Bronze Age.'

4. Middle Cycladic: (2000 BC - 1600 BC)
    a.    Soterakopoulos [2004]: 74, 'ΠΚ. ΜΚ.'
    b.    Sampson and Tsourouni [2018]: 12, 'Middle Cycladic'
