Report
Chamalevri. M. Andreadaki-Vlazaki (then Director, ΚΕ' ΕΠΚΑ, now Director of Antiquities, Ministry of Culture and Tourism) reports on work undertaken at four localities in 2000.
Between 1998 and 2000, Minoan wall footings were located over a distance of 32m at the northeastern foot of the Kakavella hill (Lambiris-Vasileiadis field); another wall lay to the north, seemingly marking off an open space. Beneath a thick layer of debris were the remains of a Middle Minoan workshop: associated finds included 11 clay vases (mostly conical cups), loomweights, obsidian, stone vases and a clay figurine.
At Palaioloutra on the southern site of the Kakavella hill (Kallergis field) is a MMII to LMIIIB settlement, with further MMI and LMIIIC1 building remains opposite on the eastern flank of the Tsikouriana hill.
Close to the latter is Konostasi (Skepetzis field), where architectural remains (part of a room and a cobbled road) were confined to the northwestern part of the field. Finds comprise five clay vases (four conical cups and a onehandled cup), obsidian, a loomweight, bronze and clay items.
Finally, Hellenistic material (including terracotta loomweights, cups, stone querns, obsidian and a lead clamp) was found on the south of the same hill, at Dagkouliana (Deredakis field).
