Stratum: | House P Annex, W half of S room, I | |
Notes: | After breakfast we begin cutting down in west half of south room of Annex to house P. For plan cf. page 5. I am finally digging a trench in this section. Terracotta 0.25 below ground just inside S wall ca. 3.00 m east of pt. (12) (page 5). Politopoulos found a terracotta which seems to have formed part of a group. The head is preserved complete body broken. Figure wears a crown and a sort of disk remains on left shoulder. Right side broken away. Looks Greek.; but is badly coated with lime etc. and needs cleaning before can be identified. Face is rather archaic. Near this same place and deeper a number of Greek potsherds have turned up. I suspect there is a Greek grave near by perhaps plundered and the contents looted or scattered. [p. 31] Trench in west part of south room of Annex to House P (cf. page 30). I have dug this trench down 0.80 m. For ca. 0.50 m there were a few Greek sherds found. After that apparently only LM III and at 0.80 2 or 3 sherds of Minyan. My theory was that we were near a Greek grave. There is not much indication of stratification in the trench. | |
