Description
Palaikastro. L.H. Sackett (BSA/Groton) reports on continuing study.
Street deposits show that Building 1 was in full use in LMIB, but had been completely cleared following the destruction. In Building 7, study concentrated on the northern half: an LMIIIA2 floor in Room 2 with sunken storage jars at the northeast has associated earlier and later (destruction and abandonment) levels. A good ritual deposit and some stone tools belong with Room 4, and a support-structure for a possible L-shaped staircase is identified in Room 9.
Work was undertaken on the plasters for Block M and Buildings 1 and 5. Charcoal from Building 2 can be identified to species level, and grains, legumes, olive and grape (amongst others) have been identified within the environmental samples. A charred insect was retrieved from Room 1. Comparable discoveries were made for Building 7, including fish and small mammal bones. Formanifera have also been recovered.
