1. Wall. Ålin [1962], 127 'Auf dem Gipfel Chili fand er Mauerreste aus mykenischer Zeit.'PERIOD (High Chronology)
1. Late Helladic: (1700 BC - 1050 BC)
a. Ålin [1962]: 127, ' ... aus mykenischer Zeit.'
NOTES
1. Location not known to me. Ålin's source is G.A. Papavasileiou, Peri ton en Euboia archaion taphon, 32. Athens, 1910.
2. Sackett et al. [1966] p. 76 say this: "Papavasileiou reported a Mycenaean fort on the promontory and traces of a small settlement between the promontory and the monastery τοῦ Σωτῇρος. This has not been verified. ... The only possible antiquity noted is a small trace of strong walling high up on the rocky spur overlooking the hamlet of Khili from the south, but this cannot be dated."
- The 'Mycenaean fort' on the promontory is C7344.
- The 'small settlement' I have not tried to mark. The monastery is F5526.
- The 'small trace of strong walling high up on the rocky spur' is this site C6790
