"","Small Chamber Tomb","","Agora:Deposit:O 7:2","","Agora","Deposit","6 May 1952","","O 7:2","Mycenaean Chamber Tomb.; Only the bottom 0.10 to 0.20m of the chamber was preserved along with the partial skeletal remains of two or three occupants. The plan revealed a square chamber (1.80m by 1.80m), entered by a sloping dromos (0.90m wide and preserved to a length of 2.5m) from the northeast. ; The reason for the scantiness of the remains and the incomplete condition of the skeletons is however, to be explained by an earlier disturbance. Apparently much of the tomb had been cut away by workmen who were engaged in digging the foundations for a large monument in the 4th c. B.C. and once they had struck the skeletons reverence for the dead induced them to shift the monument westward by its own width.","Myc.

"","The Kylix Pit","","Agora:Deposit:O 7:4","","Agora","Deposit","24-25 May 1951","","O 7:4","Mycenaean Grave (grave with kylikes).; Small irregular pit (about 0.70m by 0.45m by 0.50m deep). it was full of Mycenaean sherds and fragmentary pots, mostly kylikes, but also contained occasional scraps of bone and several small stone slabs lying in no order. Originally termed a grave, there is nothing in favor of this identification and much that argues against it. The size would be very cramped even for the burial of a child, no skeleton or certain human bones were found, the pottery was found in complete disorder. Although a number of more or less complete kylikes were found, these were all extremely coarse and of careless workmanship, and there is no reason to believe they were not chipped or minus a handle when they were discarded. Therefore the identification as a refuse pit seems more likely.; No remains.","Mycenaean IIIB-C","",""

The dromos had two lateral niches used for the burials of children, two in the right-hand or western niche, one in the eastern niche. The niches are symmetrically placed with respect to the doorway, but the eastern niche was at a considerably higher level and contained no offerings. The tomb had not been robbed or disturbed in post-Mycenaean times, for the doors of the main chamber and the niches were found closed with rough rubble walls.","Myc.
