PERIOD (High Chronology)

1. Bronze Age: (3200 BC - 1050 BC)
    a.    Ålin [1962]: 58, ' ... bronzezeitlicher Besiedlung, ... '

2. Late Helladic: (1700 BC - 1050 BC)
    a.    Simpson [1981]: 37, 'LH C', 'Mycenaean and Classical sherds were found by Gebauer ... near Ayios Nikolaos, ... '

3. LH IIIB: (1320 BC - 1190 BC)
    a.    Morgan [1999]: 474, 'LH IIIB-C'
    b.    Wiseman [1978]: 90, 'Most of the decorated sherds that I have seen here are LH IIIB with some mixture of LH IIIC.'

4. LH IIIC: (1190 BC - 1060 BC)
    a.    Morgan [1999]: 474, 'LH IIIB-C'

NOTE

1.  A comparison of Wiseman [1978] 89, fig. 111 with this accompanying picture from Google Earth should be enough to convince the observer that the modern Hagios Konstandinos is the former Ayios Panteleimon. I have judged that Hagios Konstandinos is the church to which Morgan and Wiseman are refering.
