1. See the area map in Heurtley and Radford [1929] 115, Fig. 1. A very useful stratigraphy diagram is on 119, Fig. 4.
2. The Mycenaean Atlas Project would like to thank Dr. Stratos Nanoglou of the University of Thessalonika for making available a copy of French [1967] which would have been otherwise difficult to obtain.
