Description
Agios Vasileios (Xerokampi). A. Vasilogamvrou (Director, Ε' ΕΠΚΑ) reports the discovery of further remains of Mycenaean settlement in the course of rescue excavation. In addition to pottery and figurines, fresco fragments and fragments of three Linear B tablets indicate the existence of a higher-order centre in the vicinity.
Tablet 1 preserves the word e-pi-zo-ta, referring to daggers or short swords, on one side in a large quantity (500−999) and, on the other, in a smaller (100). Tablet 2 has the name ti-jo-ko (Antichos). Tablet 3 preserves the following words on each line: -to-jo (line 1); wi-ti-mi-ja (Isthmia) (line 2); TELA-PA (ideogram for textile) followed by three (line 3); lines 4−5 are illegible; PTE-WE (woven fabric, as a dedication) (last line).
