GENERAL SITE TYPE Hab

TYPE

1.    Hab.   Nowicki [2014], 106    'This was a small and short-lasting habitation place ... '
2.    Lithics.   Nowicki [2014], 105    ' ... a few ground stone tools were seen on the southern terrace.'
3.    Pottery.   Nowicki [2014], 105    'Pottery is of the Red Ware Fabric Group and dates to the FN II period, but one sherd with red slip was later (early EM I).'

PERIOD (High Chronology)

1. Early Minoan I: (3100 BC - 2650 BC)
    a.    Nowicki [2014]: 105, ' ... one sherd with red slip was later (early EM I).'

NOTE

1. This activity site is bipartite. Part of it is up on the ridge (this is what I have marked) and just below it about 70 m. is a second terrace with an activity area of about 400 m². Nowicki gives coordinates to the upper location but I, not finding these quite credible, moved them up the cliff a bit to the very edge of the flat area. The second terrace is at approximately 35.113588 N, 26.199855 E.
