Description
Pindos. N. Efstratiou summarizes (with full bibliography) trends in data collected in a survey conducted since 2002, focused around the mod. villages of Samarina, Smixi, Avdella, Perichori, Polyneri, Philippaii and Panorama in the SW mountain zone of the Nomos of Grevena (see AR 51 [2004−2005], 68; AR 54 [2007−2008], 62). A high (but unspecified) number of MPal sites has been identified; these always lie above 1,600masl and often above 2,000masl (the highest site found in 2008 is close to 2,012masl), often on mountain ridges (well above the tree line) and always in open-air locations close to sources of water and sometimes also flint. Many sites with MPal lithics are above the moraine deposits of the last glacial. Excavation was conducted at 5 sites identified in the survey. Attention is drawn to the association of MPal lithic technology with Neo and BA (MBA) pottery at certain sites.
