TYPE

1.    Wall.   Mountjoy [1995], 55    '...a wall was found with the lower courses of stone, the upper of mudbrick...'


PERIOD (High Chronology)

1. LH IIIB2: (1250 BC - 1190 BC)
    a.    Mountjoy [1995]: 55, 'All the buildings, thus, rest on deposits that had collected by the wall, so must be later than it, but, since no pottery can be assigned to them, they could date from LHIIIB2, after the wall was built, to any phases of LHIIIC.'

2. LH IIIC: (1190 BC - 1060 BC)
    a.    Mountjoy [1995]: 55, 'All the buildings, thus, rest on deposits that had collected by the wall, so must be later than it, but, since no pottery can be assigned to them, they could date from LHIIIB2, after the wall was built, to any phases of LHIIIC.'
