Stratum: | East Alley V, mid section | |
Notes: | We next cut away another level of 10 cm in both middle sect. and south sect. This is level V and goes from 90 cm down to 1 meter. The pieces on the whole are very good, some sherds of the best Mycenaean work being found. [NB 84, p. 55, 23 June 1916, written by CWB]: The most interesting trench today is in the alley between L and M where we are going down to a considerable depth. In the top layers LM III of late sort is characteristic. At depth of ca 0.75 there begin to be a good many LM II sherds and at 1.00 m LM I seems to be predominant. We got a good many fine sherds – especially fragments of a pot with octopods separated by a lily design (?) We have both handles and numerous chunks of this.
