GENERAL SITE TYPE Cem

TYPE

1.    Cem.   Alexopoulou [2009], 193    'sampson located some pit-shaped tombs here, ... ' == 'Αδ. Σάμψων εντόπισε στη θέση αυτή λακκοειδείς, ή κιβωτιόσχημους τάφους, ... '
2.    Tomb.   Giannopoulos [2008], 73    '..., einige als Schacht oder Kistengräber bezeichnete Grabkonstruktionen zutage gekommen.'

PERIOD (High Chronology)

1. Bronze Age: (3200 BC - 1050 BC)
    a.    Giannopoulos [2008]: 74, Giannopoulos gives no date indication and I have marked it generically Bronze Age.

2. LH IIIA: (1410 BC - 1315 BC)
    a.    Alexopoulou [2009]: 193, ' ..., and dated then to the LH IIIA - B period, ... ' == ' ... και τους χρονολόγησε στην ΥΕ ΙΙΙΑ - Β περίοδο, ... '

3. LH IIIB: (1320 BC - 1190 BC)
    a.    Alexopoulou [2009]: 193, ' ..., and dated then to the LH IIIA - B period, ... ' == ' ... και τους χρονολόγησε στην ΥΕ ΙΙΙΑ - Β περίοδο, ... '

NOTE

1. Alexopoulou gives this position: 37.9358 N, 22.0531 E which is nearly 300 m. to the SW of mine. There appears to be disagreement about where this site is relative to Kandalos. Alexopoulou wants it to be S/SW ('Ν/ΝΔ') of the town (Alexopoulou [2009], p. 193). Giannopoulos wants it to be SE ('südöstlich') (Giannopoulos [2008], p. 74). For that reason I have pushed my location a bit to the E even though the hill of Arnougka (following Alexopoulou [2009], p. 821, Fig. 257) is probably at F6444.
