Acknowledgments

The author would like to express her gratitude to all the institutions and individuals that have contributed their support and efforts to this project. The excavation of Sector I in 1985 and 1986 was supported financially by the Hellenic Ministry of Culture. The Institute for Aegean Prehistory (INSTAP) has been the principal funding source since 1987, and as of 1989 the conservation of the finds, the consolidation of the architectural remains, and the study of the excavated material were supported exclusively by INSTAP. The conservation of the pottery included in the present volume was begun in 1987 at the Hagios Nikolaos Museum by Costis Nikakis, then the conservator of the 24th Ephoreia of Prehistoric and Classical Antiquities. It was continued in 1989–1991 in the Siteia Museum by Stephania Chlouveraki, Clio Zervaki, and Costas Georgantakis. In 1999–2003 the conservation was completed at the INSTAP Study Center for East Crete (SCEC) in Pacheia Ammos by Clio Zervaki, assisted by Michel Roggenbucke. The photos of the pottery were taken by the author (1985–1990) and the photographers of INSTAP SCEC, Erietta Attali (1999–2001) and Chronis Papanikolopoulos (2002–2005). The drawings were undertaken by Metaxia Tsipopoulou, Michael Wedde, Mary-Jane Schumacher, Iosif Psycharakis, and Aspasia Phygetaki. The processing of the bags of pottery and the accession of selected pottery (MEs), on which the catalog published here is based, were the work of the author, assisted by Kostis Christakis, Garifalia Kostopoulou, Yiannis Papadatos, Anastasia Papakostopoulou, Elsa Papatsaroucha, and Michael Wedde.

Introduction

This monograph is the second volume of the publication of Sector I of the Minoan palatial settlement located at Petras near Siteia in eastern Crete. The excavation of the Minoan urban settlement and palace at Petras, which includes Sector I, was conducted from 1985 to 2000. It is part of the ongoing research project, “Minoan Occupation and Settlement Patterns in the Area of the Siteia Bay, Eastern Crete.” The project started with the excavation at Hagia Photia in 1984–1985 (Tsipopoulou 1988, 2007). It includes the intensive survey in the same area (Tsipopoulou 1989), as well as the Greek-Italian excavations and survey at Achladia (1991–1993; Tsipopoulou and Vagnetti, eds., 1995). In 2001 and 2002, two important excavations were conducted at Petras to test two private properties that were later expropriated by the Greek government: a large Late Minoan (LM) III double fortification wall of Mycenaean type at the foot of Hill I (Tsipopoulou 2005, 312–314, figs. 7–9) and an important settlement dated to the Final Neolithic (FN) and Early Minoan (EM) I periods, in stratigraphic sequence, which is being studied for final

publication by Yiannis Papadatos (Papadatos 2007, 2008, 2012, 2018). The Pre- and Protopalatial cemetery on Hill II (or Kephala) has also been excavated since 2004 (Tsipopoulou, ed., 2017). The present volume is the fifth published monograph about Minoan Petras. It was preceded by four other books. The first presents the hieroglyphic archive excavated in the Petras palace (Tsipopoulou and Hallager 2010). Two other books contain the proceedings of the first and second Petras symposia (Tsipopoulou, ed., 2012, 2017). The fourth book, which is the first volume on Sector I (Tsipopoulou 2016), contains the detailed description of the excavation and the architecture of the settlement, along with all of the finds except for the Late Minoan pottery published in the present volume. The publications of the Early and Middle Minoan (MM) pottery (Relaki 2016), the Protopalatial, Neopalatial, and Postpalatial cooking wares (Alberti 2016), the miniature vessels (SimandirakiGrimshaw 2016b), and the potter’s marks were included in the first volume (Tsipopoulou 2016). For more information on Petras in general, the

contributors to the excavation, and the study of Sector I, see the preface of the first volume (Tsipopoulou 2016, xix–xxii). Volume I also contains the concordances for all finds, including ceramics. This second volume was necessary for two reasons. First, there was an enormous quantity of Neopalatial pottery to be published, along with smaller amounts of LM II and LM III ceramics. Second, the studies of finds presented in the first volume dealt with particular and specialized components of the ceramic material. These components either were not connected with the main phase of Houses I.1 and I.2, or they encompassed particular groups of pottery of special significance that occurred in limited quantities. The present volume contains the analysis of the Neopalatial and LM II–III pottery not included in the first volume and completes the publication of Sector I. For the convenience of the reader, the architectural units of Sector I and their stratigraphy are described briefly in the text of Chapter 1 and illustrated in Figures 1–6. In conjunction with this chapter the reader may wish to consult Tables 1–11 for the distribution of pottery shapes by room or area and stratigraphic layer, along with Plates 1–26 for photographs of the better-preserved Neopalatial pottery finds arranged by context. Plates 27– 29 contain photos of the LM II–III pottery, also grouped by provenience. The subject of Chapter 2 is the Neopalatial pottery. The presentation of the Neopalatial catalog is preceded by a brief synopsis of the fabrics that have been identified in Sector I through the petrographic analysis undertaken by Eleni Nodarou (see this vol., Ch. 4), a discussion of the results of a macroscopic fabric study that was undertaken, and an explanation of the cataloging system. The catalog entries are grouped according to shape, and each section begins with a general description of the types that were found in Sector I. Within each shape section, the catalog entries are grouped by rooms/areas. Along with the the text of the chapter the reader should consult Tables 12–60 for pottery statistics and summaries of the technical and decorative characteristics of each shape category, as well as Figures 7–82 for graphical presentations of fabric and type frequencies and illustrations of the pottery grouped by shape. The subject of Chapter 3 is the pottery of LM II–III date, which is arranged and presented in a

format similar to that of the Neopalatial pottery in Chapter 2. Along with the text, the reader should consult Tables 61–65 and Figures 83–93. Because of the primary arrangement of the Neopalatial and LM II–III catalog entries by shape, they do not appear in the sequential order of their catalog numbers, which were originally assigned by context. The reader who wishes to relate a specific catalog number that appears in the preceding volume on Petras Sector I to its catalog description and/or discussion in Chapters 2 and 3 of the present volume may find it helpful to consult the concordance at the end of this book. The concordance gives the pottery catalog numbers in sequential order, with additional columns for field and museum numbers, horizontal and stratigraphic provenience, shape, and page references for each cataloged item in the present volume. The petrographic analysis by Nodarou of a chronologically extensive group of samples from Sector I, selected at the excavator’s request from the pottery assemblage at large in 2003 rather than from the cataloged finds, is presented in Chapter 4. Table 64 and Plates 30–42 are associated with the discussion of this material. Chapter 5 begins with a consideration of the chronology of the settlement as attested by the pottery finds. This discussion is followed by analyses of the spatial distribution of the various functional categories of the pottery (Figs. 94–97) and of the types and frequencies of various modes of pottery decoration (Fig. 98), which offer insights into the activities and social behavior of the people associated with House I.1. Finally, the author presents a synthetic interpretation of the overall function of the house within the context of the Petras settlement and its broader domain, making reference to architectural data and the evidence from both the pottery and other categories of finds. This volume also contains two appendices that complete two chapters in volume I: the first on the cooking wares (see Alberti 2016) and the second on the Prepalatial pottery (see Relaki 2016). Appendix 1 presents a summary of the data concerning the quantities and the distribution of the various types of cooking wares (Tables 66, 67), information that was not included in the initial publication. Appendix 2 presents the macroscopic identification of the cataloged Early Minoan I–Middle Minoan II pottery finds (Table 68).

INTRODUCTION

The excavation and research at Petras have been my life’s work (έργον ζωής), and I am very happy to see a wonderful team of young researchers working on additional studies and publications of the

Sector I: Brief Introduction to the Architectural Remains and the Context of the Finds

Overview All excavated areas on Petras, Hill I are shown in Figure 1. Sector I of the Petras settlement comprises House I.1 and the excavated part of House I.2 (Figs. 2–4). The order of presentation of the various rooms and areas in both volumes of the publication (Tsipopoulou 2016 and the present monograph) is: Room A, Room M, Room E, Room Λ, Room Ξ, Room Π, Room 1, Room 2, Corridor Β-Δ, Area Z, Staircase H, Area Φ, Staircase Y, West Courtyard, Area 3, Paved Road, Area K, South-Southeast Courtyard, Pit Θ, Pit I, Area P, Area O, Area Σ (north-northwest of House I.1), Area T (northnorthwest of House I.1), House I.2, and Narrow Passage (Fig. 5). A second floor deposit in House I.1 was encountered in Room A, Room M, Room E, and Room Λ (Fig. 5). Room 1, Room 2, and Corridor Β-Δ supported verandas and balconies at the level of the upper floor. The construction phases of House I.1 are shown in Figure 6. The distribution of pottery shapes by room/area and stratigraphic layer is presented in Tables 1–11.

These tables also contain data on general categories of shapes that cannot be more precisely identified in the sherd material (i.e., closed and open vases, unidentifiable cups). We opted to count the cups separately from the rest of the open vases because of the unusually large number of cup types and also because it is evident that drinking was a very important component of the activities that took place in House I.1 and in the open areas around it (see Conclusions, pp. 152–153). For the courtyards (West Courtyard, SouthSoutheast Courtyard, Area K), the auxiliary areas in the West Courtyard (Room 1, Room 2, Area 3), Corridor B-Δ, the staircases (H and Y), Area O, Area Σ, Area T, the Paved Road, the Narrow Passage and House I.2 no tables were created because some of them contained only, or mostly, material fallen from the upper floor (1, 2, H, Y, B-Δ, Narrow Passage), while other areas had very mixed stratigraphy (West Courtyard, K, South-Southeast Courtyard, O, Σ, T). Furthermore, House I.2 was not fully excavated, and the Paved Road and Area 3 did not present any relevant stratigraphy.

In the following section brief descriptions are presented of the rooms and areas excavated in Sector I. Included in the descriptions is information concerning the location of each space, its dimensions, functional interpretation, physical description, stratigraphy, years of excavation, and bibliography. In Plates 1–26 photographs of many of the bestpreserved or restored Neopalatial pottery finds are presented, grouped by horizontal provenience and stratigraphic layers; for the LM II–III pottery finds, similarly grouped, see Plates 27–29.

Brief Description of Rooms and Areas

(4.7 m2). With Room A it forms the wine-press installation on the ground floor, with working space (?) and an area for commensal activities on the second floor (Table 2; Pl. 2). It was accessed from outside (west) through an opening located at the south end of the west wall. In the first Neopalatial architectural phase, the west and north walls were external walls of House I.1. As the floor of Room M was 50 cm lower than the ramp to the west, it is likely that there were three steps, presumably made of wood. The elevated threshold is monolithic. There is a second doorway to the south end of the east wall, leading to Room A. Both door openings are on the same axis. The stratigraphy comprises Lr I (surface), th. 40 cm; Lr II (collapse of upper floor), th. 40 cm; and Lr III (floor deposit of ground floor), th. 15–20 cm. Room M was excavated in 1985 and 1986 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 4–6, pls. 4E, 4F, 5A).

Room A Room A is a square space at the northeast corner of House I.1. Its dimensions are 2.7 x 2.6 m (7 m2). On the ground floor, along with Room M to the west, it was the locus of a wine-press installation; on the second floor, it had working space(?) and an area for commensal activities (Table 1; Pl. 1). It was accessible from the east through Corridor Β-Δ and from the west through Room M. Both door openings, placed opposite to each other, are ca. 1 m wide. The north and west walls of Room A were the external walls of House I.1 in the first Neopalatial architectural phase. Its stratigraphy comprised Layer (Lr) I (surface), th. 30 cm; Lr II (collapse of upper floor), th. 50 cm; Lr III (floor deposit of ground floor), th. 15 cm; and Lr IV, a trench excavated to extract the pithos P 2. The northwest corner of the room was paved with large slabs. On them was the large stone wine press GS 9, its spout pointing to the southeast, where the pithos P 2 and the pithoid jar P 3 were deposited to receive the liquid. The east door preserved the door socket in situ at the south end. Room A was excavated in 1985 and 1986 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 2–5, pls. 4A–4D).

Room M Room M is a rectangular space in the northwest corner of House I.1. Its dimensions are 2.6 x 1.8 m

Room E Room E lies adjacent to Rooms A and M to the south. Its dimensions are 1.7 x 4.3 m (7.31 m2). On the ground floor level it served as a storeroom and was accessed from the upper floor, probably by a wooden ladder. The second floor had working space (?) and an area for commensal activities (Table 3; Pl. 2). The ground floor was made of beaten earth mixed with a small amount of sea pebbles. A slab, probably the base of a wooden post, was found lying on the floor. Slightly off the center of the room two vertical slabs formed a feature of unknown use. The stratigraphy comprised Lr I (surface), th. 30 cm; Lr II (second floor deposit), th. 75–45 cm; and Lr III (floor deposit), th. 10–15 cm. Room E was excavated in 1985 and 1986 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 6–8, pl. 5B).

Room Λ Room Λ lies adjacent and to the south of Room E. Its dimensions are 2.25–3.00 x 3.00–4.00 m (9.20 m2). On the ground floor it served as a storeroom, accessible only from the upper floor, probably by a wooden ladder. Heavy traces of burned soil and carbon on the floor were possibly connected with the remains of this ladder. A short wall with a mudbrick

superstructure, probably not reaching the roof, divided the storeroom into two parts. On the second floor there may have been working space (?) as well as an area for commensal activities (Table 4; Pls. 3, 4). The stratigraphy comprised Lr I (surface), th. 20– 30 cm; Lr II (second floor deposit), th: 1.4 m; and Lr III (floor deposit), th. 20–30 cm. Room Λ was excavated in 1986 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 8–11, pls. 5C–5E).

Room Ξ Room Ξ is located in the northwest part of the house, adjacent to Αrea Φ, Area O, Area P and Staircase Y. It belongs to the second Neopalatial phase of House I.1. Its dimensions are 2.2 x 3.0 m (6.6 m2). It was used for food preparation and the storage of cooking and serving vessels (Table 5; Pls. 5–9). The room is L-shaped and was accessible through the sheltered industrial Area P on the northeast side. A doorway with a stone threshold on the west side leads to Area Φ. The stratigraphy comprised Lr I (surface), th. 15–20 cm; Lr II, th. 45 cm; and Lr III (floor deposit), th. 20 cm. Room Ξ was excavated in 1986 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 11–14, pls. 5F, 6A–6C).

Room Π Room Π is located at the northeast side of House I.1, to the north of Room A and Corridor Β-Δ. Its dimensions are 1.9 x 5.3 m (10.1 m2). It seems to have been used as a storage area for vessels used in the kitchen (Table 6; Pls. 9–11). No access is preserved; the doorway was probably in the northeast corner. The room is divided by a short internal wall into two compartments that communicated through an opening 1.1 m wide. Adjacent to the north wall there was a feature of unknown use, consisting of two slabs. Its stratigraphy comprised Lr I (surface), th. 15–20 cm, and Lr II (floor deposit), th. 25 cm. Room Π was excavated in 1985 and 1989 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 14–16, pls. 6D–6F, 7A).

Room 1 Room 1 lies in the southeast part of the West Courtyard, west of Rooms Λ and E. Its dimensions

7

are 1.6–1.8 x 1.9 m (3.2 m2). It was an auxiliary room for the storage of tools and vessels used in the industrial activities taking place in the West Courtyard. Together with Room 2 it probably supported a balcony on the upper floor. No doorway was preserved. It is possible that the access was at a higher level via a wooden(?) step, not preserved, on the west wall. At the northeast corner there is a niche that contained the amphora P 563, probably used to store a liquid (water?) for the industrial activities in the West Courtyard (Pl. 12). Its stratigraphy comprised Lr I (surface), th. 50 cm, and Lr II (collapse of the walls), th. 30 cm. Room 1 was excavated in 1989 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 16–18, pls. 7B–7D).

Room 2 Room 2 is located in the southeast part of the West Courtyard, adjacent to and south of Room 1. Its dimensions are 1 x 2 m (2 m2). Like Room 1 it was an auxiliary room for the storage of tools and vessels used in the industrial activities taking place in the West Courtyard. Together with Room 1 it probably supported a balcony on the upper floor. The excavation did not reach the floor. No entrance is preserved. Its stratigraphy comprises Lr I (surface), th. 60 cm, and Lr II (collapse of walls), th. 40 cm. Room 2 was excavated in 1989 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 18).

Corridor Β-Δ Corridor Β-Δ lies along the entire east side of House I.1, in front of Rooms A, E, and Λ. Its dimensions are 1.5 x 7.5 m (11.5 m2). The corridor could have served as a waiting area for people coming to House I.1 to press their vines. It was accessed from the east (Area Z) through a 1.5 m wide opening at the northeast corner and from Room A to the west. The absence of any evidence for support of the roof suggests that there was a light roofing system. Its roof was probably used as a veranda for Rooms Λ and E on the upper floor. The stratigraphy comprised Lr I (surface), th. 30 cm; Lr II (collapse of walls and fallen material from the second floor of Rooms Λ and E), th. 15 cm (Pl. 12); and Lr

METAXIA TSIPOPOULOU

III (floor deposit), th. 10–20 cm. Corridor Β-Δ was excavated in 1985, 1990, and 2011 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 18–20, pls. 7E, 8A–8E).

Area Z Area Z lies in the northeast part of House I.1, to the east of Corridor B-Δ, north of Staircase H, and south of Room Π. Its dimensions are 4 x 3 m (12 m2). It forms the main entrance to House I.1 from the east and belongs to the second architectural phase of the house (Table 7; Pl. 13). It was a sheltered area that gave access to Staircase H and, through it, to the upper story of the house. It also led to Rooms A and M through Corridor B-Δ. On the east side of the building it opened onto the South-Southeast Courtyard, to Room Π, and, through the sheltered Area P, to Room Ξ. Its stratigraphy comprised Lr I (surface), th. 30–40 cm; Lr II (collapse of walls), 15 cm; and Lr III (floor deposit), th. 15–20 cm. Area Z was excavated in 1985 and 1989 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 20–21, pls. 8F, 9A).

Staircase H Staircase H is located on the southeast side of House I.1, to the east of Corridor Β-Δ and north of Pit I. Its dimensions are 1.0–1.7 x 3.0 m (4.1 m2). It led to the upper floor, connecting the SouthSoutheast Courtyard with the veranda above Corridor Β-Δ and, through it, with Room Λ on the second floor. It was an irregular space. The lower (preserved) part was built of stone, while the superstructure was probably made of wood. The height of each step, as preserved, varies from 9 to 16 cm. The stratigraphy comprised Lr I (surface), th. 20 cm; Lr II, th. 15 cm; and Lr III (floor deposit), th. 40 cm. Staircase H was excavated in 1985 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 22, pls. 9B, 9C).

Area Φ Area Φ lies to the west of Room Ξ and north of Staircase Y. Its dimensions are 3.6 x 5.0 m (18 m2). It was a courtyard of rectangular shape, connected

with the kitchen (Room Ξ) (Table 8; Pls. 13–15). Initially it was part of the Protopalatial building occupying the area of the later House I.1. In Neopalatial times the western part of Area Φ was filled in and went out of use. The east compartment was accessed through a doorway in the east wall from Room Ξ. The stratigraphy comprised Lr I (surface), th. 5–10 cm; Lr II (collapse of walls, only in the area of the south wall); and Lr III (floor deposit), th. 10 cm. Area Φ was excavated in 1986, 1988, 1989, and 1990 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 23–25, pls. 9D– 9F, 10A).

Staircase Y Staircase Y is found east of the West Courtyard and between Rooms A, M, and Area Φ. The staircase had two parallel corridors. The dimensions of its north corridor are 4.0 x 1.2 m (4.8 m2), while the south corridor measured 4.8 x 1.0 m. (4.8 m2). It was used in both Neopalatial architectural phases. Corridor Y2 was the initial staircase, leading from the West Courtyard to the second floor. When Room Ξ and Area Φ were added Y2 went out of use and was filled with debris. A new staircase, Y1, was built with the addition of a second wing. The staircase connected the kitchen, Room Ξ, with the upper floor (Pl. 15). The stratigraphy comprised Lr I (surface), th. 20–30 cm; Lr II (collapse), th. 20 cm; and Lr III (preserved only in Y2), th. 20 cm. Staircase Y was excavated in 1986, 1989, and 2011 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 26–27, pls. 10B, 10C).

West Courtyard The West Courtyard sits on the west, higher terrace of House I.1. Its dimensions are 13.5 x 3.2 m (43.2 m2). It was an irregularly shaped open area for industrial activities (Pl. 16). At the west end of the courtyard there is a strong terrace wall, 14 m. long. The courtyard is on top of the loose soil of the large “Pit” (Λάκκος) that occupies the east part of Sector III to the west and continues into the west part of Sector I (Haggis 2007, 2012). A three-step stone-built staircase, attached to the north part of Room 1, along with a ramp, connected the West

BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO THE ARCHITECTURAL REMAINS AND THE CONTEXT OF THE FINDS

Courtyard to the lower terrace of House I.1. At the southwest end of the courtyard there is a built bench measuring 1.7 x 0.5 x 0.6–0.7 m. In front of the bench, to the east, an infant burial in the pithoid jar P 771-PM 180 was excavated (McGeorge 2012). The stratigraphy comprised Lr I (surface), th. 60 cm, and Lr II (floor deposit), th. 20 cm. The West Courtyard was excavated in 1988 and 1989 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 27–30, pls. 12A–12D).

Area 3 Area 3 is located in the north part of the West Courtyard, between Staircase Y to the south and the large terrace wall to the west. Its dimensions are 2.0 x 1.2 m. (2.4 m2). It was a triangular open area, probably covered initially with a light roofing system (made of wood?). The walls were probably used as benches for the industrial activities taking place in the structure (Pl. 16). It contained three stone mortars, one at each corner. The stratigraphy comprised Lr I (surface), th. 60 cm; Lr II, th. 15 cm; and Lr III (floor deposit), th. 23 cm. Area 3 was excavated in 1988 and 1989 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 30– 31, pls. 11A, 11B).

Paved Road The Paved Road is found at the southwest corner of House I.1. The road probably led to the palace. Its dimensions are L. (pres.) 7.5 x w. 0.9–1.2 m. The stratigraphy comprised Lr I (surface), th. 50–60 cm, and Lr II (cleaning of the surface of the road), th. 10–20 cm. The road was excavated in 1989 and 1990 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 31–32, pl. 13A).

Area K Area K lies between Houses I.1 and I.2. No borders have been established to the east and the south. It has access to the West Courtyard through the Narrow Passage, and it forms the southernmost part of the South-Southeast Courtyard. Its dimensions are 3 x 4 m (12 m2). It was a small open courtyard of irregular shape where cooking activity took place

(Pl. 16). The stratigraphy comprised Lr I (surface), th. 20 cm, and Lr II (disintegrated mudbricks fallen from the neighboring walls), th. 25 cm. Area K was investigated in 1985, 1986, and 1990 but not fully excavated (Tsipopoulou 2016, 32–33, pl. 12F).

South-Southeast Courtyard The South-Southeast Courtyard lies east and southeast of House I.1, east of Pit Θ, Pit Ι, Area Z, and Room Π. Its dimensions are ca 15 x 7 m (105 m2). The courtyard was a large open area located in front of the entrance of House I.1, giving access to the sheltered Area Z and the main doorway toward Corridor Β-Δ (Pl. 17). The stratigraphy comprised Lr I (surface), th. 15 cm, and Lr II (“floor” deposit), th. 35 cm. It was excavated in 1985, 1986, 1989, and 1990 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 33–35, pl. 12E).

Pit Θ Pit Θ is located outside of the southeast corner of House I.1. Its dimensions are 0.60–1.20 x 1.80 m (ca 1.60 m2), with a depth of 1.15 m. It served as a refuse area for pottery used in commensal activities (Table 9; Pls. 17–22). The pit is small, with an almost triangular area, and it was probably open or covered with some perishable material. Its access was from above. The stratigraphy comprised Lr I (surface), th. 20 cm, and Lr II (deposit of pottery), th. 90 cm. It was excavated in 1985 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 35–37, pls. 13B, 13D–13F).

Pit I Pit I is located in the southern part of House I.1, east of Pit Θ and adjacent to Staircase H. Its dimensions are 1.00–1.80 x 2.00 m (3.00 m2), with a depth of 1.25 m. It served as a refuse area for pottery used in commensal activities (Table 10; Pl. 23). It was trapezoidal in shape and built of undressed stones. The stratigraphy comprised Lr I (surface), th. 20–30 cm, and Lr II (deposit of pottery), th. 80 cm. It was excavated in 1985 and 1990 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 37–38, pls. 13B, 13C).

Area P Area P lies north of Room Π and east of Room Ξ. Its dimensions are 3.5 x 5.0 m (17.5 m2). It served as a workspace auxiliary to the kitchen (Table 11; Pls. 23, 24). The area was a rectangular, sheltered space, οpen to the north and east. It gave access to Room Ξ through a doorway at the northwest corner. A bench is attached to the west side. The stratigraphy comprised Lr I (surface), th. 25–30 cm, and Lr II (floor deposit), th. 20–25 cm. Area P was excavated in 1986 and 1989 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 38–39, pl. 14A).

Area O Area O is located to the west of Area P and north of Room Ξ. Its dimensions are 3.5 x 4.0 m (14 m2). Like Area P it was used as a workspace auxiliary to the kitchen. It was a rectangular space, open on the east and north sides. The stratigraphy comprised Lr I (surface), th. 30 cm, and Lr II (floor deposit), th. 20 cm. Area O was excavated in 1986 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 40).

North-Northwest of House I.1 (Area Σ) Area Σ is found to the north-northwest of House I.1 (Pls. 24, 25). It covered a space of ca. 30 m2(?). No certain Neopalatial walls were preserved, but the area was reused in the LM III period. Only a surface deposit, Lr I (th. 40 cm), was excavated in 1986, 1990, and 2011 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 40–43, pl. 14B).

North-Northwest of House I.1 (Area T) Area T lies to the north of Area Σ. Its dimensions are 4.2 x 4.2 m (ca. 17 m2?). It was an open space

separated from Area Σ by a wall. In the eastern part the bedrock was revealed. The stratigraphy comprised only Lr I (surface), th. 40 cm. It was excavated in 1986, 1990, and 2011 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 43–44, pl. 14B).

House I.2 House I.2 lies to the southeast of House I.1. Its dimensions in the west part are 2.0 x 3.5 m (7.0 m2) and 2.0 x 3.0 m (6.0 m2) in the east part. Its function may have been domestic (Pl. 26). Only the northern section is preserved; the rest of the building was destroyed by the construction of a modern irrigation pipe in the early 1970s. The preserved part is divided in two. The construction is similar to that of House I.1. The stratigraphy comprised Lr I (surface), th. 40–70 cm, and Lr II (collapse of walls), th. 50 cm. Its excavation, which took place in 1986 and 1989, was not completed (Tsipopoulou 2016, 44–45, pls. 14C, 14D).

Narrow Passage The area known as the Narrow Passage is found between the two houses of Sector I. It measured 7 m in length, with a maximum width of 1 m (ca. 7 m2). This small passage probably only served to protect the facades of the two houses from humidity and was not a road for circulation. It is accessed from the west through the West Courtyard and the Paved Road and from the east through Area K. It becomes gradually narrower toward the east, especially south of Pit Θ (Pl. 26). The stratigraphy comprised Lr I (surface), th. 30–50 cm, and Lr II, th. 40 cm. It was excavated in 1985, 1986, and 1989 (Tsipopoulou 2016, 45–46, pls. 14C, 14D).

Neopalatial Pottery

The excavation of Petras Houses I.1 and I.2 yielded more than 83,204 sherds, with a total weight of over 2,933.99 kg, along with 1,485 items of pottery that are considered small finds (μικρά εύρηματα [MEs]; complete vases, vases with full profile, or fragments important for their decoration). The MEs include 1,387 items of Neopalatial date that are cataloged in this chapter and 98 items dated to LM II–III that are described in Chapter 3 of this volume. In Table 12 the distribution of both the Neopalatial and the LM II–III sherd material is presented by room or area and layer for the totality of Sector I. In Table 13 the relative percentages of the most frequently encountered types of vases among the MEs (not the sherds) from each context are summarized. Altogether 30 different pottery shapes have been identified within the Neopalatial assemblage from Sector I. The functions represented include storage (pithoi), short-term storage (pithoid jars, amphorae, stirrup jars, and pyxides), serving

(kalathoi, jugs, bridge-spouted jars, wide-mouthed jugs, and fruitstands), food consumption (bowls and dishes), drinking (the various types of cups), and vessels of special functions (lamps, lids, rhyta, alabastra, scuttles, incense burners, stands, and scored basins/beehives). A few shapes, such as basins and strainer pyxides, could have been used for food preparation, but other functions cannot be excluded. The interesting and varied vessels used for food preparation have already been published by Alberti (2016). The presentation of the Neopalatial pottery catalog is preceded by a brief synopsis of the fabrics that have been identified through the petrographic analysis conducted by Eleni Nodarou, a discussion of the results of a macroscopic fabric study that was undertaken, and an explanation of the cataloging system. Additional information on the context of each vase described in the catalog may be found in the first volume of this series (Tsipopoulou 2016).

METAXIA TSIPOPOULOU

Fabrics and Ceramic Petrography Petrographic Analysis The petrographic analysis of 111 sherd samples from Sector I was conducted by Eleni Nodarou in 2000 (see this vol., Ch. 4). At the excavator’s request, the samples were drawn from the pottery assemblage at large rather than from the subsequently cataloged finds. This request was the result of practical difficulties in moving the material several times—from the Siteia Museum where it was stored and the INSTAP SCEC where it was processed and studied. The samples represent all periods of occupation (EM I–III, MM II, MM III, LM IA, and LM II–III). Fifteen fabric groups that occurred diachronically were identified in Sector I, among which several (Fabric Groups 1–6, 8, and 10; see Nodarou’s Table 64, below) contain examples of LM IA pottery associated with the Neopalatial occupation. Predominant among the Neopalatial coarse wares sampled are Fabric Groups 1 and 2, which, according to Nodarou (Ch. 4, p. 133), are related in their mineralogical composition to the PhylliteQuartzite series; the raw materials used in their production are similar in composition to clay samples from the marl and alluvial deposits found in the region of Siteia. Occurring with lesser frequency among the sampled coarse wares is another fabric with dark phyllite inclusions (Fabric Group 8) that is found only at Petras (Nodarou, Ch. 4, pp. 135–136). Other LM I coarse ware samples analyzed in the petrographic study may have originated from more distant areas of East Crete, including Fabric Group 3, attributed to the Palaikastro area, Fabric Group 5, which may have come from the MochlosChaimazi region, Fabric Group 6, ascribed to Zakros, and Fabric Group 10, attributed to Makrygialos on the south coast (Nodarou, Ch. 4, pp. 133–135, 136–137). It should be noted that the analyzed samples of Fabric Group 9, originating in the area of Mirabello Bay, were all dated to the MM IIA period (see Table 64, below), but this coarse fabric was also present in deposits of the Neopalatial occupation, as indicated by the macroscopic study of the cataloged material discussed below. None of the fine ware samples included in the petrographic study (Nodarou’s Fabric Groups 12–15)

are datable to the Neopalatial period, but Fabric Group 12, considered by Nodarou to be the fine var­ iant of Fabric Group 3 from Palaikastro, was readily identified in the macroscopic study of the cataloged pottery, as were a couple of examples of the fine Fabric Group 15, the origins of which are presently unclear.

Macroscopic Study Of the 1,387 pottery Neopalatial MEs presented in this volume, 786 vases and fragments, or 57% of the total, were selected for study based on their proportional frequency by the author for macroscopic analysis and attribution to the fabrics identified in the petrographic analysis, along with 39 of the 98 LM II–III MEs described in Chapter 3. It is not a common practice to assign fabrics to petrographic groups macroscopically, and the identifications should not be considered definitive. It should be noted, however, that the macroscopic attributions were discussed subsequently with Eleni Nodarou, to her agreement. The results may be considered indicative of a general trend in the fabric group proportions, but they are not statistically meaningful for the assemblage overall. Table 14 presents the macroscopic fabric assignments of the 786 items that were studied. The table is organized by catalog number and context with references to the figures and plates in which they appear. Figure 7 shows the counts and proportional representation of the seven fabrics observed among the cataloged Neopalatial material. The local Fabric Group 2 (coarse phyllite, Siteia Bay fabric) was clearly dominant, with 620 examples, followed in frequency by Fabric Group 12 (fine red, quartz-rich, Palaikastro fabric), with 103 examples. There were 10 instances of Fabric Group 9 (granitic-dioritic, Mirabello fabric) and nine of Fabric Group 8 (coarse with dark phyllite in a calcareous matrix, Petras fab­ric). The rest of the Neopalatial fabric groups (6, 10, and 15) were represented by only two examples each. In addition, there were 38 MEs that could not be attributed to particular fabrics; these are marked on Figure 7 and in Table 14 as UF (unidentified fabric). Most of these items are very fine, without any inclu­ sions, and were not suitable for petrography. Unfortunately, many of them are decorated wares, and the

NEOPALATIAL POTTERY

identification of their area of production would be important for a better understanding of the Neopalatial period at Petras and the external relations of the site. Possibly other methods of archaeometric analysis may aid in identifying the sources of these ceramics in the future. Figures 8 and 9 present the counts of the various shapes that were found in the most frequently encountered fabrics, namely Fabrics Groups 2, 8, 9, and 12. The local fabric groups from the Siteia Bay area and Petras itself (Fabric Groups 2 and 8) include a great diversity of shapes (Fig. 8:a, b). Among the Palaikastro imports a considerable variety of shapes were also present, with handleless conical cups, bowls, pithoid jars, jugs, amphorae, lamps, scuttles, stands, and lids occurring most frequently in the macroscopically studied sample (Fig. 9:b). In the 10 examples of the Mirabello fabric the most common shapes are amphorae (5) and jugs (2), while there is one example each of straightsided cups, pithoid jars, and pithoi (Fig. 9:a).

Pottery Recording and Cataloging System The cataloging system of the Petras excavations is explained in detail in volume I of the publication of Sector I (Tsipopoulou 2016, xxiii–xxv). The main points, and in particular those related to the pottery, are repeated here. It should be noted that the totality of the pottery from the Petras excavations was kept for analysis; no sherds were discarded. Moreover, at the time of excavation the three-dimensional coordinates for each ME (cer­ am­ic or other object) were measured and recorded in the excavation notebooks. The sorting and conservation of finds took place at the INSTAP SCEC in Pacheia Ammos. After the pottery was washed, all bags and ceramic MEs were laid out according to their excavation context and examined by the conservators. When joins were identified and restoration resulted in a full profile, a new ME number was assigned and added to the annual catalog. Following the completion of the conservation, a detailed description of each ME and each pottery bag was undertaken by an archaeologist using special forms with space for

13

a photograph—initially entered in analog format and later electronic (for further discussion of the transition in formats, see Tsipopoulou 2014). In addition, all ceramic MEs were drawn and photographed. All catalogs, descriptions, drawings, and plans pertaining to Sector I, including analog and digital copies, have been deposited in the archives of the INSTAP Study Center. All of the pottery from Sector I of the Petras excavations is stored in bags in the Siteia museum sequentially according to provenance (e.g., House I.1, Room M; Lr III). Some of the Petras finds have been included in the catalogs of the Siteia Museum and have a second number (e.g., P86/159-SM 12457). In spite of a very thorough search in four storerooms of the Lasithi Ephoreia of Antiquities, both in Siteia and Hagios Nikolaos, a limited number of MEs and pottery bags could not be located for publication. The Neopalatial pottery catalog presented below contains 1,387 items, ordered by shape. As noted earlier 30 shapes have been identified, and they are presented in the following sequence: pithoi, pithoid jars, basins, kalathoi, amphorae, jugs, bridge-spouted jars, stirrup jars, alabastra, widemouthed jugs, fruitstands, one-handled globular cups, straight-sided cups, one-handled bell cups, one-handled conical cups, footed cups, handleless conical cups, handleless globular cups, handleless bell cups, bowls, dishes/plates, lamps, lids, rhyta, scuttles, incense burners, stands, pyxides, strainer pyxides, and scored basins (beehives). The entries for each shape are preceded by a general analysis of their features and categorical subdivisions. References to parallels from other sites are given either for general shape categories or for particular specimens. These comparanda are only indicative and by no means exhaustive. Within each shape category the cataloged items are ordered by context. The catalog numbers are preceded by P (for Neo- and Postpalatial pottery). All measurements are given in centimeters. When a sherd does not preserve a full profile, dimensions are given by numbers only (e.g., max. dims. 3.5 x 4.0 x 0.6, the first number being length, the second width, and the third thickness). When a ME belongs to more than one category, for example, a globular cup with a potter’s mark, both catalog numbers are given, separated by a hyphen (e.g., P 1367-PM 148 [PM = potter’s mark]).

The analysis of (a) technical characteristics, namely types of clay (fine, medium, coarse), colors of clay, presence of cores, slip, and paint; and (b) decoration, is presented in Tables 15–60. For each item in the catalog, Munsell numbers are provided for clay, possible core, slip, and paint (MEs preserving only traces of paint are not included). The 2016 version of the standard Munsell Soil Color Charts was used (Munsell Color Company).

Catalog of the Neopalatial Pottery Pithoi Τhe catalog comprises 30 specimens of pithoi. There is one complete example (P 2) from Room Α, connected with the stone wine press GS 9. Two more examples preserve a full profile (P 36, P 118), and the profile of P 673 was restored in drawing. The rest of the cataloged pithos fragments offer enough information concerning bases, bodies, or rims to allow classification of three pithos types from Sector I. Within the sherd material overall 1,523 additional pithos fragments were identified. Technical characteristics of the pithos fabrics and a summary of their decoration may be found in Tables 15 and 16, respectively. For a useful analytical typology of pithos features and types of plastic decoration from a site with a very long history of occupation similar to that of Petras, see Vandkilde (2016) on Chania-Kastelli (although no LM IA pithoi are included); this is a very useful addition to the work of Christakis (2005). Type 1: Conical One complete specimen (P 2) and the upper part of a second one (P 674) may be assigned to the conical pithos type (Fig. 10). Pithos P 2 has the only preserved base, a rather narrow torus, 28.2 cm in diameter. The body of this vessel is conical to conical ovoid, 97.5 cm in height. The rim is flat, shaped almost like a T in section, with an exterior diameter ranging from 45.6 to 54.0 cm. It is equipped with three horizontal, obliquely set handles of circular section, placed under the rim. Both type 1 examples are undecorated.

Parallels, mostly from the Mirabello area but also from Malia and Zakros, dating to MM III and LM I, are illustrated by Christakis (2005, 19, fig. 23, type 107). An example with light-on-dark decoration with spirals comes from Knossos (Warren 1991, fig. 6:B). Type 2: Cylindrical The cylindrical pithos is related to type 1 in shape but has a different rim. As no complete specimen is preserved, there is no certainty about the base forms or height. The most completely preserved example (P 116) comprises the rim and about half of the body. The rim is pronounced, with an almost rectangular or trapezoidal section and a flat upper part. The rim diameters range between 38.2 and 53.1 cm. No handles are preserved. Two specimens are decorated, P 116, which is monochrome externally, with a large band on the interior of the rim, and P 120, with zones of ripple pattern externally and a band on the interior of the rim (Fig. 10). Christakis illustrates pithoi with a similar body and a pronounced horizontal rim of trapezoidal section (2005, 20, fig. 24, types 112–114). The type starts in MM II but is more frequent in MM III and LM I, connected both with palatial and domestic contexts. Addditional examples may be found in the publications of material from Knossos (Hatzaki 2007b, 171, KS 178, fig. 5.10, MM IIIB), Alonaki, Juktas (Karetsou 2013, fig. 7.7, also MM IIIB), Zakros (Gerontakou 2011, pl. 73), and Palaikastro (Knappett and Cunningham 2003, 154, no. 309, fig. 30). Type 3: Ovoid-Piriform The most common type of pithos, with numerous examples, is the ovoid-piriform shape (Figs. 11– 13). Two specimens preserve a full profile (P 36, P 118), and the profile of a third one has been restored in drawing (P 673). Several more specimens provide information about the details of bases, bodies, rims, and decoration. The bases are flat (P 117, P 880, P 883) or slightly convex (P 36), with a single torus (P 673, P 881) or one with multiple ridges (P 36, P 118, P 881, P 883). The base diameters range between 21.0 and 37.0 cm. The bodies are tall and ovoid, with a high center of gravity. The heights range between 104.5 and 106.0 cm. These pithoi have a cylindrical neck with curved

NEOPALATIAL POTTERY

profile, tall in P 885, distinguished from the body. The rims are outcurving, with elliptical sections, and follow the profile of the neck, with the exception of P 1474-ΡΜ 267, which has a trapezoidal rim, similar to the rims of type 2. The rim diameters range between 26.0 and 45.5 cm. There are four handles, circular in section, on the shoulder (P 36, P 118), but in one case (P 117) there is a second row of handles, also of circular section, above the base. Ovoid pithoi are usually decorated with plastic ropes with finger impressions. These ropes may be placed horizontally (P 34, P 36, P 118, P 751, P 885) on the base of the neck or obliquely between the handles (P 36, P 118); on the body of the vessel, they may be present in a single row (P 36) or in multiple rows (P 35, P 884, P 886). In several cases there is also painted decoration, dark-on-light, consisting of dribbles on the handles and the body (P 36, P 118, P 365); the dribbles on P 673 reach the base. Bands on both sides of the rim are also encountered (P 672, P 1360), and in one case there are two zones of ripple pattern on the exterior surface and the upper part of the rim, combined with a wide band on the interior surface (P 1474-PM 267). The type starts in MM II and is very frequent in this period; it continues, with less frequency, in MM III, LM IA, and LM IB. It is usually associated with palatial, and generally elite, contexts. Parallels may be found in the work of Christakis (2005, 13–14, fig. 14, type 54). There are also examples from the Achladia Villa (Platon 1997b, fig. 13, LM I) and Palaikastro (Knappett and Cunningham 2012, 181, fig. 5.37, dated to MM II, with parallels from Malia, Quartier Mu).

Pithoid Jars Sixty-four specimens of pithoid jars are included in the catalog. Many of them are smaller versions of the pithos forms described above, the most common types being the ovoid (P 3) and the cylindrical (P 67, P 68, P 675, P 1301-ΡΜ 245, P 1362-ΡΜ 257). In addition 6,529 more pithoid jar fragments were identified among the sherd material. Three types of pithoid jars are described below. Attributes of fabric and decoration are summarized in Tables 17 and 18. Type 1: Imitation of Ovoid Pithos The type 1 pithoid jar (Fig. 14) is represented by one complete example (P 3) and two fragments of bases and lower bodies (P 368, P 769). The height of the complete specimen is 32.0 cm, the rim diameter is 16.0 cm, and the base diameter is 13.8 cm. The

17

bases are flat underneath, with a torus on the upper part. The bodies are ovoid or almost piriform in the complete specimen, with a high center of gravity. The necks are wide, conical-cylindrical, with a ring at the junction with the body. The rims have elliptical sections. There are four vertical handles of circular section on the shoulder. The decoration consists of oblique plastic ropes with finger impressions between the handles (P 3). One specimen (P 769) is monochrome on both surfaces. Parallels may be observed at the Villa of Prophetes Elias (Tourtouloi) and Zakros (Platon 1997b, figs. 28, 29). Type 2: Imitation of Cylindrical Pithos No complete specimens or bases of type 2 pithoid jars are preserved. The rims (Fig. 14) are either of trapezoidal section, more or less pronounced (cf. P 67, P 675 vs. P 1362-ΡΜ 257), or in some cases of elliptical section (P 68). The rim diameters range between 16.0 and 26.6 cm. The decoration is dark-on-light, consisting of bands on both surfaces of the rim (P 675) and a zone of ripple pattern on top of a wide band (P 67). One specimen has a potter’s mark below the rim (P 1362-ΡΜ 257). A parallel for P 67 may be seen in a LM IA example from Knossos, decorated with spirals (Hatzaki 2007b, fig. 5.27). Type 3: Ovoid-Piriform The most common form of the pithoid jars is the ovoid-piriform type 3, of which there are numerous examples (Figs. 15–17). There are small variations in the shape of the body, the rim, and the handles. Only one complete specimen is preserved (P 771ΡΜ 180), the vessel containing the burial of a fetus (McGeorge 2012). The base is rather small, 13.0 cm in diameter, the body has a high center of gravity, and the rim is outcurving, with elliptical section. It has two horizontal handles of circular section, obliquely set on the shoulder. On all other examples of this type the rim diameter ranges between 14.0 and 28.0 cm. One example (P 681), preserving the upper part to the middle of the body, has vertical handles of circular section on the shoulder. The many fragmentary specimens present small variations, especially in the shape of the rim, always incurving, following the profile of the upper body, and of elliptical section (P 127, P 371, P 652, P 654, P 752, P 888–P 892, P 1300, P 1365) or atrophied

(P 123, P 126, P 129, P 490, P 554, P 681, P 770, P 774, P 1299) and in several cases almost vertical (P 372, P 1458). A number of specimens have small knobs on the rim, especially those equipped with a small spout (P 129). All pithoid jars are undecorated and, with very few exceptions, monochrome on the exterior surface, with a band on the rim internally (P 123) or without a band (P 66). A MM IIIB parallel comes from Palaikastro (Knappett and Cunningham 2012, 184, no. 663, fig. 5.40); the rim form of this collar neck jar presents a close parallel for the rim form of P 127, P 371, P 771-PM 180, P 888, P 890, P 1300, and P 1365. A parallel for P 123 may also be found at Palaikastro (Knappett and Cunningham 2003, 154, no. 308, fig. 38). There are similar specimens from Zakros as well (Gerontakou 2011, pls. 9:E3, 66:Λ14, also pl. 71). A bridge-spouted jar from the Kommos kiln is identical in shape to P 771-PM 180 (Shaw et al. 2001, fig. 34:37). The type, with small differences in the rim profile and a more slender body, continues into LM IB (e.g., Hatzaki 2007b, fig. 194:1). For the plastic decoration of P 366, see a group of ovoid-piriform type pithoid jars from Mochlos, decorated with incised/applied lilies (Brogan 2004). The Petras example is probably a product of the same workshop. Catalog Room A P 3 (P86/A92-SM 11989; Lr III; Fig. 14; Pl. 1). Pithoid jar (type 1), complete.

Basins The catalog includes 20 examples of basins. Among the sherd material 1,374 more basin fragments were identified. The basins can be divided into two forms that are described below. Attributes of fabric and decoration are sumarized in Tables 19 and 20. Type 1: Conical Body Basins with conical body (Fig. 18) are represented by one complete example (P 893) and another

that is almost complete (P 558). The bases of both specimens are wide and flat. The body is conical in the first case but has a slightly curved profile in the second. The rim is cut horizontally on P 893 and obliquely with elliptical section on P 558. There are other examples with a horizontally cut rim (P 775, P 1264), while some specimens have rounded rims, not well formed (P 612, P 613). Basin P 893 has two horizontal handles of circular section in the middle of the body. It has a base diameter of 20.1 cm, a height of 9.9 cm, and a rim diameter of 30.0 cm. Parallels for P 558 may be found at Palaikastro (Knappett and Cunningham 2003, 131, no. 185, fig. 22, LM IA; see also a MM III bowl with similar profile, Knappett and Cunningham 2012, 147, no. 238, fig. 5.9). There is a slightly later example from Mochlos (Barnard et al. 2003, 57, IB 272, fig. 14); see also a basin from Malia (Pelon 1970, pl. XII:6, no. 48). For P 1264, there is an example from Mochlos (Barnard et al. 2003, 57, IB 276, fig. 15) and another from Knossos (Rethemiotakis and Warren 2014, 22, no. 73, fig. 3.3, with band decoration). A parallel for P 893 comes from Zakros (Gerontakou 2011, pl. 34:I 11). For P 612, there is a parallel from Palaikastro (Knappett and Cunningham 2012, 55, no. 133, fig. 27, MM IIIB–LM IA) and a MM IIIB example from Galatas (Rethemiotakis and Christakis 2013, 103, fig. 8.15). Type 2: Curved Body Profile Τhe three examples of basin type 2 share the feature of a curved body profile but are not otherwise similar (Fig. 19). Τhe fully preserved vessel, P 895, has a slightly curved lower surface of the base, two horizontal handles of circular section, obliquely set high on the body, and a thin rim following the profile of the body. Basin P 687 has a wide horizontal rim, and P 373 is very shallow with a double horizontal handle of circular section below the rim. Both vessels are monochrome on the interior and exterior surfaces. Basin P 895 has a base diameter of 14.0 cm. Rim diameters range between 19.2 and 44.0 cm, and heights range between 7.7 and 9.0 cm. Parallels for P 895 may be noted from Zakros (Gerontakou 2011, pl. 35:Δ 34) and Palaikastro (Knap­pett and Cunningham 2003, pl. 170:436, with the handles on the rim).

Kalathoi Twenty-four examples of kalathoi are included in the catalog (Figs. 20, 21), and 212 more fragments were identified among the sherd material. Kalathoi present a remarkable uniformity. Most kalathoi are assigned to type 1. The bases are flat, the bodies clearly conical or with a slightly curved profile, and the rims are rounded and outcurving, following the profile of the body. The base diameters range between 5.8 and 14.0 cm, the heights between 5.0 and 14.8 cm, and the rim diameters between 15.0 and 28.2 cm. Most examples are deep, with a few exceptions such as P 690. Kalathos P 1370 belongs to a different type (type 2) with a high base, a pronounced curved profile, and thin outcurving rim following the profile of the body. Information on fabric characteristics and surface treatments is presented in Tables 21 and 22. All specimens are unpainted, with the exception of a single sherd that has spatter decoration on both surfaces (P 779-PM 176). For parallels see examples from Zakros (Gerontakou 2011, pl. 33) and a LM IA decorated example from Knossos (Catling, Catling, and Smyth 1979, fig. 20:135). For the shallower type (P 1304, P 1371) see examples from Galatas (Rethemiotakis

and Christakis 2013, 103, fig. 8.15). Specific parallels from Palaikastro may be found in the publications of Knappett and Cunningham (for P 138, 2003, fig. 23:187; for P 493, 2012, fig. 5.23:414; for the shallow type P 690, 2012, 144, no. 207, fig. 5.5, MM IIIA with decoration of festoons internally). An example with small lugs below the rim comes from the Kommos kiln (Shaw et al. 2001, fig. 33:28). The shape continues in the LM IB period, as attested by examples from Petras and Mochlos (Barnard et al. 2003, fig. 11:IB 249). For the type with curved profile P 1370, see a decorated example from Knossos, the Unexplored Mansion (Hatzaki 2007a, 287, no. 4, fig. 9) and another from the Kommos kiln (Shaw et al. 2001, fig. 33:31).

Amphorae The catalog includes 65 specimens of amphorae, 11 of them complete or preserving full profile. An additional 2,343 amphora fragments were identified among the sherd material. All amphorae are oval mouthed. They are divided into seven types, described below, according to the width of the base and the shape of the body. Information about fabrics and decoration is presented in Tables 23 and 24. Type 1: Ovoid Body with Flat Base The bases of the type 1 amphorae are flat, variably rather narrow or, as in the case of P 386, somewhat wider (Figs. 22, 23). The center of gravity is high, the necks are low and wide, and the handles start at the rim or just below it (P 495, P 898). The base diameters range between 12.7 and 19.1 cm and the heights between 37.1 and 41.7 cm. Some examples are unpainted (P 149, P 379, P 382, P 840), while the majority have a simple linear decoration, darkon-light, consisting of bands on the rim, interior and exterior, at the base of the neck, on the body, and around the base (P 691, P 783, P 900). One specimen (P 383) is probably decorated with wide arched bands. In some cases the neck is monochrome (P 495, P 853, P 1461); another specimen has spatter decoration (P 898). Parallels may be observed at Gournia (Hawes et al. 1908, pl. 1:12), Palaikastro (Bernini 1995, 69, no. 33, fig. 11, similar to P 382; Knappett and Cunningham 2003, figs. 36:299, 37:298), and Zakros

26

METAXIA TSIPOPOULOU

(Gerontakou 2011, pl. 60, very similar to P 900). The decoration of P 383 looks very similar to specimens from the Mirabello area (Betancourt 1977, fig. 4:B, the burial pithos from Pacheia Ammos). There are also examples from Knossos (Catling 1979, 25, no. 58, fig. 20, similar to P 382 and P 900; for P 386 see Hatzaki 2007b, fig. 5.8:3). Type 2: Globular-Conical Body The amphora with globular-conical body (Fig. 23) is less common than the the type 1 form. No full profile is preserved. The bases are narrow (one example, P 494, has a diameter of 6.5 cm), wide shoulders, and a high center of gravity. The necks are low and funnel shaped. The handles start at the rim. Most specimens (P 145, P 380, P 901, P 905) are unpainted. In one case there are bands on the rim exterior and interior, as well as on the base of the neck (P 389). The most complete example (P 494) has bands on the lower body and a zone of running spirals on the shoulder. Type 3: Depressed-Ovoid Body A complete example of the type 3 amphora (P 384; Fig. 23) is a combination of types 1 and 2. The shape of the body is depressed ovoid. The base diameter of P 384 is rather wide (12.2 cm), and the height is 33.8 cm. The neck is low and funnelshaped, and the handles are arched, rising slightly above the rim. The decoration comprises groups of bands on the rim, the base of the neck, the middle of the body, and the base. Type 4: Amphoriskoi Amphoriskoi are represented by two examples (P 387, P 1473; Fig. 23). They have a wide base, slightly convex underneath, a baggy body, a wide low neck that is a collar in the first case but atrophied in the second, and two vertical handles from the rim to the shoulder in the former and horizontally placed in the latter specimen. Base diameters are between 9.0 and 10.1 cm, the heights are 14.4 cm, and the preserved rim diameter is 9.3 cm. They are decorated with one (P 387) or two (P 1473) wide bands in the middle of the body. Parallels may be found at Palaikastro (Knappett and Cunningham 2012, fig. 5.33:178, 608, 609).

Type 5: Import One intact amphora of ovoid shape (P 563; Fig. 23) is probably imported from South-Central Crete. It has a flat base, the body is ovoid, the neck is rather narrow and high, and the rim-to-shoulder handles are small and arched. An interesting, unusual detail, unique for Petras and, as far as I know, for eastern Crete in general, is the addition of two small vertical handles in the middle of the body. The vessel is decorated with systems of bands of varying width and a schematized leaf or reed pattern on the shoulder. The base diameter measures 13.0 cm; the height is 38.6 cm. Parallels include an amphora from Knossos, similar in shape, decorated with bands and two zones of ripple pattern (Warren 1991, fig. 3:B); there is also a parallel for the shape from Phaistos-Chàlara (Palio 2001, 308, no. 366, fig. 49:e, also decorated with schematized elongated leaves). Type 6: Piriform Body Four specimens of amphorae with piriform bodies are intact or complete (Fig. 24). The bases are small, the bodies piriform, and the center of gravity high. The necks are cylindrical and rather narrow. The handles are arched, attached from the rim (P 140, P 1460) or slightly below it (P 381, P 388) to the shoulder. Some specimens are undecorated (P 144, P 148, P 385), one has spatter decoration (P 140), two specimens (P 381, P 388) are monochrome on the upper part to the shoulder, and two more specimens have bands on the base of the neck (P 1460) and the middle of the body (P 899). The preserved part of P 76 is monochrome. Particularly interesting is a richly decorated specimen (P 147) with zones of ripple pattern on the lower body, running spirals in the middle of the body, and probably a second zone of ripple pattern on the shoulder. Base diameters range from 9.6 to 15.0 cm, heights from 36.8 to 40.0 cm. To the same type belongs a miniature example (P 615) with a base diameter of 4.9 cm. Type 7: Piriform Body with Plastic Ring at Junction of Neck to Shoulder Three fragmentary examples of amphorae with piriform bodies (P 143, P 152, P 904; Fig. 24) have

Jugs The catalog includes 70 jugs. In addition, 2,124 more jug fragments were identified among the sherd material. The jugs are divided into three types, which are discussed below. Technical information about the fabrics and their decoration is presented in Tables 25 and 26. Type 1: Globular Body Jugs with globular body have wide bases, wide, low necks, and trefoil rims, with the exception of P 396, which has a round rim (Fig. 25). Although represented only by base fragments, P 404, P 411, P 697, and P 705 probably belong to this type given their size and profile. In some cases the rim folds to the exterior (P 161) or has a plastic knob (P 406). The handles start at the rim (P 406), and some are slightly raised above it (P 157, P 161). There are several unpainted specimens (P 39, P 157, P 161, P 398), and three are monochrome (P 401, P 404, P 753). One example has dribbles on the interior surface (P 157). In some cases the decoration consists of bands (P 697, P 705). Zones of spirals are rather common on the shoulders, while the rest of the body is monochrome (P 915) or has groups of bands (P 396, P 406) or a single band (P 1267). At least one specimen (P 411) is decorated with a zone of ripple pattern above the base. Another one was probably initially decorated with wide arched bands (P 410). Base diameters range from 4.7 to 13.8 cm and heights from 13.3 to 29.0 cm. A jug similar to P 915 and with identical decoration comes from Palaikastro (MacGillivray et al. 1991, fig. 14; also Bernini 1995, fig. 8:C).

Type 2: Piriform-Ovoid Body Jugs of type 2 usually have narrow bases, although at least in one case the base is rather wide (P 699). The bodies are ovoid, and the center of gravity is high (Figs. 26–28). The rims are trefoil, round (Ρ 393, Ρ 397, Ρ 399, Ρ 908, Ρ 914) or not very pronounced (P 77, P 78, P 155, P 392, P 699, P 704, P 1375). Many specimens are undecorated (P 155, P 392, P 399, P 397, P 699, P 908, P 914). The handles start at the rim and end at the shoulder. The group of decorated jugs of type 2 includes examples with bands (P 78, P 391, P 393, P 704), monochrome necks (P 77), or monochrome lower bodies (P 405). There are also zones of ripple pattern (P 703, P 1375). Sherds of jugs have zones of ripple pattern (P 788) or zones of schematized floral motifs and spirals (P 160, P 787, P 910, P 911, P 1265, P 1266). Base diameters measure from 5.6 to 18.0 cm, rim diameters from 6.1 to 13.1 cm, and heights from 18.6 to 27.7 cm. Parallels for the type 2 jug variant with short and narrow neck (e.g., P 393, P 397, and P 399) include MM IIIB examples from Knossos (Hatzaki 2007b, fig. 5.8:4) and from the Kommos kiln (Shaw et al. 2001, fig. 36:46, 47). Type 3: Globular Depressed Juglets Type 3 juglets have wide bases, depressed, almost biconical bodies, and wide, almost conical necks (Fig. 28). There are two undecorated examples (P 657, P 1377). Base diameters range from 4.2 to 5.6 cm, heights range from 6.2 to 9.2 cm, and the only preserved rim diameter is 6.0 cm. Catalog Room M P 37 (P86/1143; Lr II). Jug, base and lower body fragment.

Bridge-Spouted Jars The catalog includes 27 examples of bridge-spouted jars, and 183 more fragments were identified among the sherd material. There are not many variations in the profiles of the bodies, which are in all cases piriform-ovoid (Fig. 29). The distinction among the three types discussed below is made on the shape of the bases, which are flat, ring shaped, or torus. Handles are of two types, either horizontal (P 163, P 496 P 706) or vertical (P 916, P 1381); in some publications the latter are called bridge-spouted jugs. Tables 27 and 28 should be consulted for technical attributes of the fabrics and a summary of the decoration. All types have good parallels from Palaikastro, but there the horizontal handles are usually of square rather than circular section. Bridge-spouted jars with a vertical handle are much less common; a good parallel for P 1381 is an example from Palaikastro with floral decoration, dated to LM IA (Knappett and Cunningham 2012, 195, no. 730, fig. 6.5).

NEOPALATIAL POTTERY

Type 1: Flat Base Type 1 jars have flat bases. They are usually undecorated (P 42, P 496) or monochrome (P 163, P 857, P 917), but in one case (P 707) there is a zone of ripple pattern on the rim. Base diameters range between 9.4 and 10.0 cm; rim diameters between 7.7 and 16.6 cm, and heights between 24.3 and 25.4 cm. Middle Minoan IIIB parallels for P 163 and P 496 may be observed at Palaikastro (Knappett and Cunningham 2012, 160, no. 365, fig. 5.20; also Bernini 1995, fig. 5:D). A further example, with light-on-dark decoration, comes from the Kommos kiln (Shaw et al 2001, fig. 35:40). Type 2: Ring Base The bridge-spouted jar with ring base is the most common type. In at least two examples there is a vertical handle opposite the spout instead of two horizontal handles, which are more common. The usual decoration consists of a combination of bands on the body and a zone of running spiral on the shoulder (P 919, P 920, P 923, P 1381). There is also an example decorated with a wide arched band (P 706). Base diameters range between 5.9 and 8.9 cm, rim diameters between 6.8 and 10.7 cm. The one example with height fully preserved measures 23.4 cm. Middle Minoan IIIB parallels are found at Palaikastro (Knappett and Cunningham 2012, 167, no. 451, fig. 5.25); LM IA examples come from Knossos (Hatzaki 2007b, fig. 5.1, decorated with spirals); there is also a parallel for P 1381 from PhaistosChalara, with a vertical handle and decorated with spirals (Palio 2001, fig. 45:l). Type 3: Torus Base Τhere are only three examples of type 3, preserving only the bases. One of them is monochrome (P 921), one is unpainted (P 5), and the third one has a zone of ripple pattern (P 918). Base diameters range between 6.2 and 8.0 cm. There are MM IIIB parallels from Palaikastro (e.g,. Knappett and Cunningham 2012, 163, no. 405, fig. 5.25). Type 4: Thin Incurving Rim Body and base portions of type 4 jars are not preserved. The thin and incurving rims are similar to

37

those of types 1 and 2. One example is decorated with thin bands (P 925); the rest have zones of ripple pattern (P 167, P 498) or a foliate band (P 43). Rim diameters range between 9.0 and 9.6 cm. Parallels come from Palaikastro (Knappett and Cunningham, 2012, 163, no. 405, fig. 5.22, MM IIIB; also, for P 167, 198, no. 757, fig. 6.9, LM IA) and Kommos (Betancourt 1990, 70, no. 110, fig. 14; Rutter 2017, 12, fig. 2.4, X1:2/1, X1:2/2, LM IA).

Stirrup Jars Stirrup jars are very rare at Petras. With regard to Sector I this scarcity is not surprising given the LM IA date of the assemblage. Even in LM IB, when the shape becomes, in general, much more popular, the excavated examples from Petras are very few. Only one small sherd (P 166), from the handle and the disk of a MM IIIB specimen, is preserved from Sector I; it comes from House I.1, Room Λ, Layer III, the floor of the storeroom. Its decoration, in the light-on-dark technique, consists of a system of concentric circles in vertical arrangement. It was probably a remnant from the first phase of the house. Room Λ P 166 (P86/bag 180/1; Lr III; Fig. 30). Stirrup jar, handle fragment. Max. dims. 3.3 x 3.1 x 0.9. Vertical, elliptical section. Fine 2.5Y 8/4 (pale yellow) clay with pink core. Thick slip of same color. Black, white, and 2.5YR 4/6 (reddish brown) paints; black monochrome, white vertical bands on upper part of handle between reddish brown circular motifs. Fingerprint on lower part of handle.

Alabastra The catalog includes 12 examples of alabastra, and 17 more fragments were identified among the sherd material. The shape (Fig. 30), is rather rare. No full profile is preserved. The examples all belong to the same type. The form of the body is ovoidpiriform, and the rim is vertical, of the collar type. The high rims are in some cases cylindrical (P 6, P 564, P 565, P 617, P 859) and in other cases have a curved profile and pronounced edge (P 1385). In several examples the rim is low and vertical (P 792, P 924). Some specimens are unpainted (P 6, P 617, P 859), one is monochrome (P 792), two are decorated with bands (P 924, P 1385), and two have a zone of ripple pattern on the shoulder (P 564, P 565). Rim diameters range between 4.4 and 18.0 cm. Details of fabric and decoration may be found in Tables 29 and 30.

Wide-Mouthed Jugs The catalog includes eight examples of widemouthed jugs, and one additional fragment was identified among the sherd material. Three types are represented (Fig. 31). The most common type comprises unpainted specimens of a clearly conical, or almost conical, body profile, the second has a cylindrical body and slightly incurving rim, and the third has a globular body and high neck. The technical attributes of the fabric are summarized in Table 31. Type 1: Conical Body The type 1 body profile is often rather curved, and the rim follows the profile of the body with a small open spout; the vertical handle is circular in section. Six specimens are presented below (P 79PM 13, P 168, P 169, P 413, P 414, P 709). The

NEOPALATIAL POTTERY

base diameters range between 4.3 and 7.8 cm, the heights range between 9.7 and 17.6 cm, and the rim range diameters between 9.0 and 17.4 cm. They are unpainted. Parallels come from Palaikastro, where the forms are very similar, but they usually have an outcurving rim (e.g., Knappett and Cunningham 2003; fig. 18:172; for specimens very similar to P 169 in the shape of the body, rim, and spout see fig. 45:437, as well as fig. 38:308, with two horizontal handles). Type 2: Cylindrical Body Type 2 is a much less common form. The body is almost cylindrical, and the rim is thin and incurving. A spout and a vertical handle were probably present initially but are not preserved (P 710). These jugs are unpainted. The base diameter of P 710 is 10.0 cm, the height 18.0 cm, and the rim diameter 10.0 cm. Type 3: Globular Body The shape of the body is globular and slightly depressed, the neck is wide with a curved profile, and the rim is outcurving, following the profile of the body. This type has no spout. The handle is vertical, of circular section. The only fully preserved example (P 926) has a base diameter of 3.6 cm, a height of 12.1 cm, and a rim diameter of 10.0 cm. It is decorated with bands on the lower body, a zone of spiral/schematized floral motif on the upper part, and a zone of ripple pattern on the rim. An almost identical example comes from Palaikastro (Knappett and Cunningham 2003, fig. 35:286). Catalog Room E P 79-PM 13 (P86/1163; Lr III; Fig. 31; Pl. 2).

Fruitstands The catalog includes 26 examples of fruitstands, and 95 more fragments were identified among the sherd material. These vessels always have a conical shape with a pronounced outcurving rim. They can be divided into three types: footless, footed, and tripod (Figs. 32, 33). The name “fruitstands” is a conventional one; they were certainly used to serve some sort of food, probably solid. Details of their fabric and decoration are presented in Tables 32 and 33. Type 1: Footless The bodies of type 1 fruitstands are conical and shallow, and the pronounced rim is outcurving, rolled in some cases. There is one complete specimen (P 711). The same body and rim shape are found on a series of other examples that do not preserve the base but probably belong to the same general footless type with flat base (P 173, P 174, P 177, P 178, P 182). The rim diameter ranges between 20.8 and 32.0 cm; the height of the only fully preserved specimen is 5.0 cm, and the base diameter is 8.4 cm. There are three unpainted fruitstands of this type (P 44, P 178, P 711); the majority are monochrome on both surfaces (P 173, P 174, P 177, P 183). One example (P 182) is decorated with a zone of ripple pattern on both surfaces, and another (P 1455) has a zone of an indeterminate, probably floral motif. A parallel comes from the Kommos kiln (Rutter and Van de Moortel 2006, pl. 3.13: L/12, LM IA). Type 2: Footed Type 2 fruitstands, with fewer examples, also have a shallow conical body and a pronounced outcurving

rim, but they are distinguished by a low foot that is hollow underneath. Two specimens (P 170, P 927) are preserved more or less complete, providing information for the details of the body and the decoration. The one preserved rim diameter is 19.0 cm. Neither of the two preserves the full height, but it can be calculated to have been around 9.0 cm. The clay is relatively fine and the decoration careful, with zones of ripple pattern on both surfaces. The interior of the foot is monochrome on P 927. An earlier example from Knossos, Bougada Metochi used as a bowl or lamp and dated to MM IIIA, affords a parallel for the low foot (Rethemiotakis and Warren 2014, 36, no. 165, fig. 3.8). Type 3: Tripod Eight examples belong to the third type of fruitstand. The body is similar to that of the previous types, but these are relatively deeper specimens, with outcurving rims rolling externally in some specimens (P 180, P 415), and three thin legs of elliptical section. No complete specimen is preserved. The height of the body ranges between 2.3 and 10.6 cm, and the rim diameter between 13.7 and 28.0 cm. Six examples are monochrome with a lustrous paint (P 171, P 172, P 175, P 176, P 180, P 415), and two are unpainted (P 618, P 928). A good parallel for P 180 comes from Palaikastro (Knappett and Cunningham 2012, 195, no. 732, fig. 6.5, MM III/LM IA). For the profile of the rim of P 415 see an earlier example from the same site (Knappett and Cunningham 2003, no. 202, fig. 25, dated to MM II).

One-Handled Globular Cups The one-handled globular cup shape is very common. The catalog comprises 45 examples, and 1,818 additional fragments were identified among the sherd material. Three types are encountered in the Sector I material, with small variations of the shape, as discussed below. Technical characteristics of the fabric and modes of decoration are summarized in Tables 34 and 35. Type 1: Deep Cups Deep cups are characterized by their S-profile, high, thin, outcurving rim, and slightly raised base, which in some cases has a convex lower surface, along with a ribbon handle that starts at the rim and is sometimes raised above it (Figs. 34–36). The base diameter ranges between 3.7 and 6.7 cm, the height between 3.0 and 10.0 cm, and the rim diameter between 8.4 and 16.4 cm. The cups are made of fine clay, and many are monochrome on both surfaces (P 11, P 418, P 420, P 421, P 502, P 568, P 619, P 930, P 1308, P 1463). There are also some specimens decorated with a zone of running spirals of various types or of stylized floral motifs (P 10, P 419, P 422, P 500, P 933, P 937, P 938, P 1271, P 1274); less common is a zone of ripple pattern in combination with narrow bands, accompanied by another narrow band on the rim internally (P 424). A few examples, especially ones of small size, are decorated only with bands either on both sides of the rim (P 793, P 794) or only externally (P 860, P 932, P 939); in one case (P 936) there is spatter decoration in combination with a narrow

NEOPALATIAL POTTERY

band on the exterior side of the rim. There is also one unpainted example (P 795). Some globular cups have the lower surface of the base decorated (P 933) with a band at the edge and a semicircular motif in the center, for example, P 424, with a stylized floral motif. Parallels for these cups are very common at MM IIIB Palaikastro (see the following examples in Knappett and Cunningham 2012: for P 937 and P 1274, 149–150, no. 268, fig. 5.11, decorated with a zone of concentric arcs; for P 500, 163, no. 412, fig. 5.23, identical shape decorated with ripple pattern; for P 421, 167, no. 463, fig. 5.27, with light-ondark decoration; for P 418, 174–175, no. 586, fig. 5.32; for P 937, 192–193, no. 692, fig. XXX:c, which has a raised handle and does not preserve the base; see also Bernini 1995, figs. 10:20–24, 16:105. A cup similar to P 500, P 937, and P 938 also comes from Malia (Pelon 1970, pl. XV:2, no. 103). There are also numerous parallels from Knossos (e.g., Warren 1991, fig. 10:E–J, globular cups with outcurving rims, decorated with spirals, leaf patterns, or ripple pattern; from Knossos, Bougada Metochi: Rethemiotakis and Warren 2014, 27, no. 98, fig. 3.6, for P 421; for P 794, 15, no. 2, fig. 3.2, a decorated example, MM IIIB/LM IA; from the Unexplored Mansion: Popham 1984, pls. 141, 143:1–4, mostly with ripple decoration; from the Little Palace: Hatzaki 2005, pl. 4:2, LM IA, similar to P 500, P 937, and P 1274; from the South House: Mountjoy 2003, figs. 4.3:37, LM IA, 4.9:111–114, LM IA globular cups decorated with spirals, similar to P 937; 4.9:111, 122 for similar cups decorated on the lower surface of the base, also similar to P 937). This type of cup is also very common at PhaistosChàlara (Palio 2001, figs. 37:106, 38:209, decorated with spirals, and 38:137). There are also examples from Kommos (Rutter 2017, 12, fig. 2.5, no. X1:2/10, identical in shape to P 795, decorated with a foliate band; for LM IA parallels for P 500 and P 937, Watrous 1992, figs. 12:30, 33; 26; Rutter and Van de Moortel 2006, pl. 3.42:37d/1, decorated with running spiral, and, for the deeper, probably slightly more chronologically advanced version exemplified by P 419, pl. 3.44:40/8). Type 2: S-profile, Straight Rim Type 2 comprises smaller examples of the onehandled globular cup with a slightly raised base

45

and thin outcurving rim, not well formed, following the profile of the body (Fig. 36). The vertical handle (P 934) is of the ribbon form. The only preserved base (P 934) has a diameter of 3.8 cm, the height of the same specimen is 6.0 cm, and the rim diameter ranges between 9.6 and 11.9 cm. These cups usually have a monochrome interior surface (P 566, P 934, P 1273), but less frequently they may be decorated with bands (P 1272). The exterior surfaces are either monochrome (P 566) or have zones of running spirals or a stylized floral motif in combination with bands (P 934, P 1272, P 1273). A parallel for P 934 comes from MM IIIB Palaikastro (Knappett and Cunningham 2012, 195, no. 728, fig. 6.4, with a raised handle, unpainted); see also a LM IA example from Hagia Triada (Puglisi 2013, fig. 22:c, very similar to P 934 and P 1272). Type 3: S-profile, Rounded Rim Type 3 is similar to type 2, the only difference being the shape of the rim, which is both more rounded and more outcurving. It is represented by only one example (P 1270; Fig. 36), which is decorated with a zone of spirals and has a monochrome interior surface. Its rim diameter is 7.9 cm. A parallel specimen comes from the Kommos kiln (Shaw et al. 2001, fig. 32:25). Catalog Room A P 7-PM 1 (P86/512; Lr I). One-handled globular cup, handle fragment and attachment. Max. dims. 4.0 x 1.0.

Straight-Sided Cups Straight-sided cups are the most common cup type found at Petras and probably in Neopalatial Crete

NEOPALATIAL POTTERY

in general. The catalog presents 61 examples, and there were 1,621 additional fragments among the sherd material. Straight-sided cups are divided into three types, the first two defined by the profile of the bases, beveled or flat, with a cylindrical or slightly conical body. The third type has a slightly raised base and an almost angular body profile (Vapheio cups). Characteristics of fabric and decoration are presented in Tables 36 and 37. Straight-sided cups are common at Palaikastro in MM IIIB (Knappett and Cunningham 2012, figs. 5.20:357, 358; 5.22:396, 397; 5.25:439, 440; 5.31:572, 574, 575, 577, 581). Most examples are monochrome, but band and spiral decoration are also encountered. Cups similar to P 429 at Palaikastro are dated to LM IA (Knappett and Cunningham 2012, fig. 6.13:819, 820). An exact parallel for the decoration of P 1387 may be observed at the same site (Knappett and Cunningham 2012, 186, no. 672, fig. 5.42). Late Minoan IA straightsided cups with spatter decoration are illustrated in the same publication (2012, 212, nos. 903, 904, fig. 6.17). From Knossos, Bougada Metochi, a ridged straight-sided cup very similar to P 429 is dated to MM IIIA late (Rethemiotakis and Warren 2014, 33, no. 134, fig. 3.7). Shallower cups with a less curved profile from Kommos are earlier, in some cases MM IIIB (Rutter and Van de Moortel 2006, 371, pl. 3.13:L/8). Type 1: Beveled Base Type 1 straight-sided cups with beveled bases have cylindrical bodies, sometimes tending toward the conical, and in many cases they have a slightly convex profile (Figs. 37, 38). The rims are thin, outcurving, and not well formed, following the profile of the body. The handles are ribbon shaped, starting at the rim and sometimes slightly raised above it. The base diameters range between 6.4 and 8.8 cm, the heights range between 5.0 and 8.0 cm, and the rim diameters range between 9.0 and 10.5 cm. Some examples are unpainted (P 83, P 190, P 192, P 434, P 436, P 620), and others are monochrome on both surfaces (P 184, P 191, P 428, P 435, P 621). In several cases there are thin reserved bands (P 426). There is also spatter decoration (P 756, P 943) that continues below the base.

Parallels come from the Unexplored Mansion at Knossos (Popham 1984, pl. 142:8, similar to P 435) and also from Palaikastro (for the shallow cup P 432, see Bernini 1995, fig. 2, probably MM IIIB, and fig. 9:9–11). Type 2: Flat Base The second type of straight-sided cup has a flat base. Other features of the shape remain the same, with bodies that are either cylindrical-conical or have a slightly convex profile, with thin, outcurving rims, not well formed, following the profile of the body, and ribbon handles (Figs. 38–41). The base diameters ranges between 4.2 and 9.8 cm, the heights between 2.3 and 8.0 cm, and the rim diameters between 8.3 and 10.4 cm. There is also a miniature example (P 941) with a base diameter of 2.6 cm and a height of 3.6 cm. Band decoration is the rule, but there are also monochrome and unpainted examples. One example is decorated with ripple pattern, which continues on the lower surface of the base (P 1387). An example from the Unexplored Mansion at Knos­sos is very similar to P 185 (Popham 1984, pl. 128:b). For a LM IA relatively shallow straightsided cup such as P 427, there is a parallel from Phaistos-Chàlara (Palio 2001, fig. 37:52, decorated with a foliate band in the dark-on-light technique). Parallels for P 439 and for P 1309 come from the kiln at Kommos (Shaw et al. 2001, fig. 32:22, unpainted; fig. 32:21, monochrome). Type 3: Angular Profile (Ridged) The third type of straight-sided cup is represented by few examples. The profile has an angle in the middle of the body, approaching the shape of the Vapheio cups (Fig. 41). The bases are raised, almost ring shaped, the bodies conicalcylindrical, the rims thin, outcurving, and following the profile of the body; the ribbon handles are wider than those of the other two types. The base diameters ranges between 6.1 and 6.2 cm, the heights between 8.6 and 9.9 cm, and the rim diameters between 10.1 and 12.4 cm. These cups are unpainted (P 429) or monochrome (P 438), and the best example (P 944) is decorated with bands and zones of solid circles. There is another specimen decorated with bands (P 440). The interior

surfaces are monochrome in several cases (P 438, P 440, P 944). Parallels are evident at Knossos (from the Stratigraphical Museum excavation: Warren 1980–1981, fig. 5:74, decorated with spirals and small solid circles; from the Unexplored Mansion: Popham 1984, pl. 128:a, also decorated with ripple pattern, and pl. 142:12–14; from the South House: Mountjoy 2003, fig. 4.10:142, decorated with a foliate band and small solid circles, LM IA).

One-Handled Bell Cups One-handled bell cups are very rare, with 10 examples among those which are complete or with full profile; among the sherd material 13 fragments of this form were identified. Two types are defined according to the body profile: type 1 is slightly angular, and type 2 is slightly curved (Fig. 42). Attributes of their fabric and decoration are summarized in Tables 38 and 39. Type 1 cups have LM IA parallels from Palaikastro, without the added white paint on the darkon-light decoration (Knappett and Cunningham 2003, fig. 44:419). There are also some good LM IA parallels for the second type from a deposit with ash (Knappett and Cunningham 2012, 195, nos. 726, 728, fig. 6.4). Parallels from Knossos, Bougada Metochi, may also be discerned (Rethemiotakis and Warren 2014, 23, no. 82, fig. 3.4, monochrome, MM IIIB–LM IA transition, for type 1; 38, no. 178, fig. 3.9, MM IIIA, dipped in paint, for type 2). Type 1: Angular Profile Bell cups of type 1 have raised bases, and their bodies have an angular profile with rims that are thin and outcurving, following the profile of the body.

The ribbon handles are vertical from the rim to the carination. The base diameters range between 3.2 and 3.7 cm, the heights between 3.3 and 6.7 cm, and the rim diameters between 8.0 and 8.8 cm. All examples are decorated. One is monochrome on both surfaces (P 797), and the rest have dark-onlight decoration (P 951, P 953, P 954), in one case (P 954) in combination with added white dots. The decoration consists of groups of bands (P 953) or bands on the lower part of the body with a zone on the upper part with a careless zigzag (P 951) or a running spiral (P 954). Two specimens are painted on the lower surface of the base (P 951, P 954). Type 2: Curved Profile The second type has a slightly raised (P 948) or flat base (P 947, P 949, P 952) and a body with curved profile and thin, outcurving rim, following the profile of the body. The handles are vertical from the rim to the lower body and of ribbon type (P 948) with circular (P 947) or elliptical section (P 952). The base diameters range between 2.5 and 3.8 cm, the heights between 4.2 and 6.6 cm, and the rim diameters between 6.6 and 8.5 cm. All specimens are decorated with the exception of one small cup (P 948). The other examples of the group have darkon-light decoration with brown or reddish-brown paint. The decoration consists of bands on the lower body and a zone on the upper body, which has in two cases a schematized foliate band (P 947, P 952); a third example has systems of triangles (P 949). Similar examples come from Palaikastro (Bernini 1995, figs. 15:88, 16:99). Catalog Room Ξ P 443 (P86/A53; Lr III; Pl. 9). One-handled bell cup, almost complete.

One-Handled Conical Cups The catalog includes 35 examples of one-handled conical cups, and 953 more fragments were identified among the sherd material. One-handled conical cups are less common than other types of drinking vessels such as globular and straightsided cups. Two types were identified among the Sector I material, those that are clearly conical and those with curved profile. Aspects of their fabric and decoration are detailed in Tables 40 and 41. There are exact parallels for the Petras cups from Palaikastro (see Knappett and Cunningham 2012, 174, nos. 572 and 573, fig. 5.31, for the first type with clearly conical body, and, in the same figure, nos. 590 and 593 for the second type with curved profile; see also MacGillivray et al. 1991, figs. 12, 13, with in-and-out decoration, dated to MM IIIB/LM IA). Capacities of the Petras examples have not been measured. Rethemiotakis and Warren (2014, 75) offer a useful table for the capacities of the handleless conical cups from Knossos, Bougada Metochi, which range between 38 and 117 centiliters. Type 1: Conical Type 1 conical cups have bases that are flat, and the bodies are clearly conical with thin, outcurving rims that follow the profile of the bodies (Fig. 43). The handles are vertical, from the rim to the lower body, of circular (P 758, P 1355) or elliptical section (P 802, P 865, P 955), or even of ribbon form (P 1464). The base diameters range between 4.0 and 6.0 cm, the heights between 5.0 and 6.0 cm, and the rim diameters between 8.0 and 12.2 cm.

These cups are usually monochrome on both surfaces (P 623, P 757, P 799), but there also are some specimens decorated with a band on both surfaces of the rim (P 955), with spatter decoration (P 801), or with light-on dark bands (P 659). Parallels come from Palaikastro (Bernini 1995, fig. 10:18) and from Kommos (Rutter and Van de Moortel 2006, pls. 3.26:3b/1, 3.27:6/4, LM IA early). Type 2: Curved Profile The type 2 cup has a more or less curved body profile and in some cases (P 716) an almost S-shaped profile (Figs. 44, 45). The handles are of circular section (P 197, P 198) or of ribbon form (P 717, P 803). The bases are raised (P 85, P 446, P 505, P 863, P 864), and the rims are usually thin (P 85, P 197, P 198, P 718, P 800, P 803, P 862, P 864, P 1391) or, more rarely, rounded and outcurving (P 446, P 504), following the profile of the body. The cups are usually either unpainted (P 85), monochrome (P 197, P 198, P 447, P 717, P 803, P 863), or with a band on both surfaces of the rim and dribbles (P 199, P 446, P 718, P 864, P 1390, P 1391). Less common is the painted decoration, dark-on-light, spatter (P 862), or bands on the lower surface of the body and a zone on the upper part with a running spiral (P 504, P 505), a careless zigzag (P 716), or a ripple pattern (P 800). A parallel for P 863 comes from Palaikastro (Bernini 1995, fig. 9:15). For P 505, see examples from Knossos, South House (Mountjoy 2003, fig. 4.10:133, 134, LM IA).

Handleless Conical Cups Large concentrations of handleless conical cups also were excavated in the Palace (LM IA destruction deposit) and in House II.1 (LM IB destruction deposit). Ιn a previous publication with David Rupp (Rupp and Tsipopoulou 1999), we proposed that these large concentrations of this particular type of drinking vessel at Petras, all of them stored or used near entrances of important buildings, represented evidence for token hospitality for lower status individuals who visited the particular buildings for various purposes. It is also significant that in the same deposits, among the many handleless conical cups also were found cups of other types, such as straight-sided or globular cups— usually decorated—in significantly smaller quantities. We suggested that the latter were used by officials or other important people connected with the buildings, in order to stress a superior hierarchical relationship between them and the visitors. The analyses of the architectural features, the depositional contexts, and the finds in the two volumes of the publication of Sector I (Tsipopoulou 2016 and the present monograph), suggest the special function of House I.1, not as a simple (or elite) domestic structure but instead as a production center for a particular corporate group, whose members probably lived both in the Petras urban settlement as well as in small settlements in the hinterland. This corporate group was probably connected with or dependent upon the palatial administration. In this context, the handleless conical cups would represent token hospitality for people visiting or working in the area, or coming to bring their produce (esp. wool and grapes) to be processed. In this context, the large number of handleless conical cups would not be related to elite symposia, but rather to a hierarchical ritual of token hospitality, as well as to work-feasts.

Important arguments supporting these interpretations are, I believe, the three types of context where large numbers of handleless conical cups were excavated within House I.1—that is, storage (mostly Area P), use (Rooms Λ and E of the upper floor), and curated discard (Pit Θ and to a lesser degree Pit I). The pits are structured deposits that represent a mnemonic record of ritual consumption (Table 42; Fig. 46; see also this vol., Ch. 1). In the conclusions of the aforementioned article from more than 20 years ago, we stated that: “This pilot study of EDA analyses shows both a high degree of similarity within each sample at Petras as well as among the four samples. These results indicate, therefore, that the cups were mass produced by a limited number of production units with the explicit function of turning out as many simple functional vessels as possible. Further there is no significant variation in form and size between LM IA and LM IB” (Rupp and Tsipopoulou 1999, 738).

The typological analysis of the LM IA handleless conical cups from House I.1, and also that of a significant LM IB deposit from House II.1 (Tsipopoulou and Alberti 2011, 475–478), are shedding more light on the issues of the typology, production, and possible function of this extremely common and yet not fully understood large class of Minoan vessels. Handleless conical cups constitute the most numerous group of Neopalatial vases at Petras. The catalog includes 299 specimens, and 9,874 more handleless conical cup fragments were identified among the sherd material. Handleless conical cups were also stored in Room Ξ (the kitchen), Room Π, and possibly also in Room Σ. The majority of those excavated in Room 1, Corridor B-Δ, Staircase Y, Narrow Passage, and the courtyards, were probably fallen from the upper floor, while some of them could either have been in use or discarded where they were found. As for Area Φ, which was an open space connected to Room Ξ, the relatively few cups found could have been in use or discarded there. The handleless conical cups at Petras are usually of very good quality, turned on a fast wheel, and well fired. Asymmetrical bodies are rare. They are made of medium clay, with few or no impurities, and are in most cases slipped. At least 53 handleless

conical cups have potter’s marks, mostly lines or nail impressions. Decoration on these cups is very rare: there are a few monochrome specimens (P 963) and others with a band on both surfaces of the rim (P 807, P 834). Aspects of fabric and decoration are summarized in Tables 43 and 44. Four types with small differences in the body profile can be identified (Figs. 47–52). Type 1 has a conical profile, type 2 is slightly curved, type 3 is S-shaped in profile, and type 4 is distinctively deep. The rims are thin and outcurving, following the profile of the body; more rarely they are rounded. The bases are either flat or raised. Type 1: Conical The type 1 bases are flat and the rims slightly outcurving. Base diameters range between 3.0 and 5.0 cm, heights between 3.5 and 5.5 cm, and rim diameters between 6.7 and 12.0 cm. There is one decorated example (P 834) with a band on the rim internally (cf. Knappett and Cunningham 2012, fig. 6.2). Type 2: Raised Bases, Curved Profile The rims of this cup type are rounded or thin, following the profile of the body. Base diameters range between 3.1 and 5.6 cm, heights between 3.4 and 5.5 cm, and rim diameters between 7.0 and 12.0 cm. All specimens are unpainted (cf. Knappett and Cunningham 2012, fig. 6.4). Type 3: Raised Bases, S-profile The rims are thin, outcurving, slightly incurving, or following the profile of the body. Base diameters range between 3.1 and 4.5 cm, heights between 3.4 and 5.5 cm, and rim diameters between 6.9 and 10.5 cm (cf. Knappett and Cunningham 2012, fig. 6.9:751). Type 4: Deep The bases are either flat or raised, the deep bodies are clearly conical or with S-profile, and the rims follow the profile of the body or are slightly outcurving (P 1035). Base diameters range between 2.5 and 5.9 cm, heights between 3.6 and 7.5 cm, and rim diameters between 6.0 and 11.5 cm. At least one example is monochrome (P 963; cf. Knappett and Cunningham 2012, fig. 6.14:842).

Handleless Globular Cups Handleless globular cups are not uncommon at Petras, although they are much less numerous than their conical counterparts. The catalog contains 18 examples. It is not easy to distinguish this shape among sherds when the full profile is not preserved. These cups are often monochrome on both surfaces. There are also instances of decoration with a zone of foliate band at mid body. Handleless globular cups are divided into two types, according to the profile of the rim: type 1 with flaring rim (Fig. 53) and type 2 with vertical rim (Fig. 54). The base diameters range between 3.2 and 6.0 cm, the heights between 6.2 and 8.9 cm, and the rim diameters between 9.8 and 14.0 cm. Many specimens are unpainted (P 524-ΡΜ 52, P 23–P 25, P 523, P1121–P 1123, P 1338); there are also monochrome examples (P 1283, P 1285– P 1287) and others with a band on both surfaces of the rim (P 211). Characteristics of fabric and decoration are detailed in Tables 45 and 46. Parallels come from Knossos, Bougada Metochi (Rethemiotakis and Warren 2014, fig. 3.3:53, 56, 94, 124, most MM IIIB/LM IA). Handleless globular cups with vertical rim (e.g., P 1338) were also recovered from the Kommos kiln (Shaw et al. 2001, 51, no. 23, fig. 32, referred to as a “bell cup”).

Handleless Bell Cups The catalog includes nine examples of handleless bell cups (Fig. 55). All are unpainted with the exception of P 638, which is monochrome. This is another type of cup not easily identifiable in the sherd material. Two types of handleless bell cups are described below. Technical attributes of the fabric are presented in Table 47. Type 1: S-profile Bases of S-profile cups are raised, and the rims are thin and outcurving following the profile of the body. Base diameters range between 3.2 and 5.2 cm, heights between 5.1 and 6.7 cm, and rim diameters between 7.4 and 9.0 cm. The clay is in all cases fine. The cups are self slipped and unpainted. Type 2: Carinated Profile There is one type 2 specimen (P 638) with a carinated profile, flat base, and vertical rim. Its base diameter measures 3.5 cm, its height is 5.7 cm, and its rim diameter is 10.0 cm. Both surfaces are monochrome. For parallels see the Knossian examples from Bougada Metochi (Rethemiotakis and Warren 2014, fig. 3.7:123, 139, MM III). Catalog Room E P 90 (P85/A415; Lr II; Fig. 55).

Bowls The catalog contains 329 examples of bowls, and 1,918 other fragments were identified among the sherd material. Figure 56 shows the distribution of bowls by room/area and layer (see the discussion above (p. 59) on the places of use, storage, and discard for the handleless conical cups). The term “bowl” is used in this monograph with reference to a large group of open vases of various types, small or larger, decorated or not, with many differences in the profile. The features they have in common are that their rim diameters are larger than their heights, and, with very few exceptions, they are handleless. The scarcity of plates/dishes in Sector I, a context where large-scale food consumption was practiced, supports the hypothesis that along with plates made of perishable material, food was served mostly in bowls. Eight types are identified and described below. For details of fabric and decoration, see Tables 48 and 49. Type 1: In-and-Out Bowls Figures 57 and 58 present 13 examples of in-andout bowls. The bases are wide, with diameters ranging between 5.7 and 6.3 cm. The bodies have curved profiles and in some cases are semiglobular. The heights range from 4.7 to 6.9 cm. The rims are sometimes thin, rounded, and outcurving, following the profile of the body (P 249, P 1417), or they may be wide and horizontal (P 724, P 1425). On one example there is a circular lug under the rim (P 249). These bowls are decorated on both surfaces: the interior surface has bands and zones of careless zigzag (P 91, P 258, P 1417), only bands (P 249), and bands in combination with one or more zones of ripple pattern (P 259, P 1425, P 1427) or schematized floral motifs (P 252, P 1288, P 1291). There is one case of smear decoration (P 724). The interior and exterior decoration is the same (P 91, P 258, P 259, P 1427) or similar (P 1288), with a spiral zone (P 1291). The wide surface of the base in some cases also has decoration organized in concentric zones (P 255, P 1292).

NEOPALATIAL POTTERY

The type is well known both in MM IIIB and LM IA. Parallels have been found at Palaikastro (Knappett and Cunningham 2012, 160, no. 360, fig. 5.20, with rim following the profile of the body, similar in shape to P 91, P 252; 162, no. 384, fig. 5.21, comparable to P 249 with horizontal handle, initially two, preserved on the rim). There are also examples from Knossos (Popham 1984, pl. 145:4 for P 91 and P 249, with decoration similar to P 91; for Knossian MM III parallels of P 249 see Rethemiotakis and Warren 2014, fig. 3.6:102, 103; for a Knossian example with handles, similar to P 249, see Warren 1991, fig. 7:G, with handles lower than in the Petras example and similar decoration with zigzag externally and ripple pattern on the interior surface). There is also an example from the Kommos kiln (Shaw et al. 2001, fig. 38) that is decorated with ripple pattern externally and spirals internally and is similar in shape to P 1291. This profile is unusual for Petras, where the in-and-out bowls are generally more conical, and the same is true for the examples from Palaikastro (Bernini 1995, fig. 17:111, 112). There is also a specimen from Kommos with two small horizontal handles on the rim, dated to LM IA (Rutter and Van de Moortel 2006, pl. 3.34:22b/1). Type 2: Decorated, with Curved Profile Type 2 comprises decorated examples with either a curved or an almost conical body profile that preserves no rim and consequently cannot be assigned to types 1 or 3. Despite the absence of rims the profile of the body shows that they were shallow, and therefore these fragments could not be attributed to another type of open vessel (e.g., cups). Seven examples are presented in Figure 58. The bases are flat (P 819, P 1289, P 1290), slightly raised (P 263, P 1430), or discoid (P 54, P 1431), with base diameters ranging between 3.2 and 4.9 cm. Interiors are either monochrome (P 263, P 819, P 1289, P 1290, P 1430) or have systems of bands (P 54). The exterior surface has bands (P 54, P 819, P 1289, P 1290, P 1430) or zones of ripple pattern (P 263). There is also an unpainted example (P 1431). The rims are not preserved but might, in some cases at least, have been ledge shaped. There are parallels from Palaikastro for a rather shallow type of bowl with curved profile and bases similar to the Petras examples (Knappett and Cunningham 2012, 163, nos. 388, 391, fig. 5.21, Middle Minoan IIIB or Late Minoan IA).

Type 3: Ledge-Rim Bowls Ledge-rim bowls are common in Sector I at Petras. Figures 58 and 59 present 24 examples, many of them preserving full profile (P 217, P 244, P 253, P 460, P 462, P 468, P 469, P 839, P 1424, P 1467, P 1481). The bases are in a few cases flat (P 244, P 460, P 462, P 1481) but are more frequently raised or almost discoid (P 217, P 229, P 235, P 253, P 468, P 469, P 839, P 1424) with base diameters ranging between 4.4 and 5.4 cm. The bodies have more or less curved profiles, and in few cases they are almost conical (P 229, P 1467). The heights range between 1.8 and 5.5 cm. A special feature of this type is the wide, horizontal, outcurving rim. The rim diameters range between 11.3 and 14.0 cm. The majority of the specimens are unpainted (P 98, P 217, P 229, P 235, P 244, P 253, P 264, P 274, P 460, P 462, P 468, P 469, P 640, P 641, P 817, P 839, P 1467, P 1481), and there are many examples that are monochrome either on the exterior surface only (P 260) or on both surfaces (P 262, P 266, P 1424). Bowl P 1466 has a band on the interior surface of the rim. There is also decoration with zones of ripple pattern (P 1466). The upper part of the rim is often decorated, usually with smear pattern (P 102, P 260, P 264). Ledge-rim bowls are a very common form, usually unpainted, and are present already in the Protopalatial. They are much rarer in LM IA contexts in eastern Crete. The rim is more or less pronounced. There are parallels from Palaikastro (Knappett and Cunningham 2012, figs. 5.19:321–323, 325; 5.30:551, 552, 559, 571). Type 4: Conical Bowls The largest group of bowls is the conical type 4. Figures 60–64 present 99 examples, complete or with full profile. In most publications this type is not distinguished from the handleless conical cups, which are similar in profile and technical characteristics, but it is more appropriate to treat them as a separate group. The reason for this is that the bowls, are very shallow, and this feature indicates a different function. Practical experience suggests that it is not easy to drink from a vessel with a large rim diameter. The criterion for attribution to one of the two categories (i.e., handleless conical cups or bowls) is the height of each specimen. In bowls the height is smaller than the rim diameter, while in the cups

80

METAXIA TSIPOPOULOU

the height is equal to or bigger than the diameter. The very shallow bodies of the bowls suggest that they were not used for drinking but for serving a small portion of food, presumably solid. Nevertheless, both handleless conical cups and conical bowls were used as lamps (see below). The details of the fabrics and the form, excewpt for the height, are similar to those of the conical cups described above. The base diameters range between 3.2 and 5.8 cm, the heights between 3.0 and 5.3 cm, and the rim diameters between 7.1 and 11.7 cm. All conical bowls are unpainted. Type 5: Shallow Conical Shallow conical bowls are a subtype of type 4 (Figs. 64, 65). They have base diameters ranging between 2.1 and 6.0 cm, heights between 2.1 and 4.8 cm, and rim diameters between 6.8 and 13.2 cm. All specimens are unpainted with very few exceptions (P 267, P 812, which have spatter decoration on the interior surface). Parallels may be found at Palaikastro (Bernini 1995, fig. 12:34, 50, 51) and Knossos, the South House (for P 1456, Mountjoy 2003, fig. 4.1:14, dated to the transitional phase MM IIIB–LM IA). Type 6: Undecorated, Curved Profile Type 6, undecorated and with curved profile, is sim­ilar to type 5 (Fig. 66). There are 20 examples: P 214, P 227, P 242, P 257, P 465, P 594, P 816, P 1158, P 1164, P 1167, P 1179, P 1180, P 1186, P 1189, P 1197, P 1199, P 1226, P 1346, P 1420, P 1429. The base diameters range between 3.0 and 4.9 cm, the heights between 3.0 and 5.5 cm, the rim diameters between 7.5 and 14.0 cm, and base diameters between 3.0 and 4.5 cm. They are all unpainted. Type 7: Undecorated, S-profile Type 7 bowls are undecorated, with S-shaped profile (Fig. 67). The base diameters range between 3.5 and 5.0 cm, the heights between 2.6 and 5.2 cm, and the rim diameters between 7.8 and 12.0 cm. One specimen is monochrome on both surfaces (P 223). There are hundreds of parallels for types 4–7 bowls from Palaikastro (Knappett and Cunningham 2012, figs. 5.20:347; 5.21:371, 376, 377; 5.25:420, 431, 433, 414; 5.30:538, 659; 5.34:615; all of the pre­ceding MM IIIB/LMIA; 6.4:698, 705, 715–717; 6.7;

Type 8: Semiglobular Decorated Bowls Semiglobular decorated bowls are a rare type with only one complete specimen (P 875) and another missing the base (P 1241). The base diameter is 5.0 cm, the height 3.2 cm, and the rim diameter ranges between 9.0 and 12.0 cm. Bowls P 875 and P 1241 are monochrome on both surfaces, and the latter has a reserved band under the rim externally (Fig. 67).

Dishes or Plates There are two partially complete examples of dishes or plates, along with 340 more plate/dish fragments that were identified among the sherd material. The scarcity of the type probably indicates that other shapes (e.g., bowls) were used for food consumption and/or that dishes of perishable material (presumably wood) were in use for solid and liquid food. Βowls of various types were also used for serving food (see above). The better preserved specimen (P 275) is very shallow, conical with a spout, having a rim diameter of 24.0 cm, and unpainted. A parallel may be observed at Palaikastro (Knappett and Cunningham 2012, 182, no. 655, fig. 5.38). Room Λ P 275 (P86/bag 167/2; Lr II; Fig. 67). Plate, rim and body fragment.

Lamps Lamps come both from the ground floor and the upper floor. The catalog comprises 87 examples, including handleless conical cups and bowls used as lamps. Seventy-one more lamp fragments were identified among the sherd material. Ten types of lamps are described below. Details of fabric and decoration are presented in Tables 50 and 51. Type 1: Curved Body Profile with One Nozzle Lamps with a curved body profile and a single nozzle comprise the most common type of lamp in the

assemblage. Twenty-one examples are included in Figure 68. The bases are flat (P 59, P 478, P 733-PM 120, P 762, P 1296, P 1358), raised (P 277), or of ring form (P 1468). The bodies are of globular depressed form. There is often one loop handle (P 57, P 1468) of circular section, raised above the rim, or a lug opposite the nozzle (P 59). In one case (P 59), there is a double lug at a 90° angle to the nozzle. The nozzle is usually elongated. A similar example (P 478) has an internal handle. The heights range between 3.3 and 5.2 cm, the base diameters between 3.0 and 6.8 cm, and the rim diameters between 8.7 and 9.5 cm. Some specimens are unpainted (P 276, P 300, P 734, P 1297, P 1439, P 1443, P 1444); others are monochrome (P 57, P 301, P 733PM 120, P 735, P 762) or have a monochrome exterior surface and an interior band (P 297). Some examples have bands on both surfaces of the rim (P 283), a band on the exterior surface of the rim and a band and dribbles on the interior (P 478), or bands on both surfaces of the rim and dribble on the interior (P 299). Lamps of this type occur at Palaikastro (Knappett and Cunningham 2012, 150, nos. 269, 316, figs. 5.11, 5.17, both considered MM IIIA; 163, no. 399, fig. 5.22, MM IIIB). Type 2: Wide Rim, Curved Profile Type 2, with wide rim and curved profile, is rare, with only two fragmentary examples preserved (P 286, P 287). Τhe bodies are very shallow, and the base is flat, with a diameter of 8.1 cm. The rim is wide and incurving. This type has also one nozzle. No indication of a handle is preserved. The fragments are unpainted (Fig. 68). Types 3–5: Cups and Bowls A large number of handleless conical cups and bowls were used as lamps, as suggested by the traces of burning on the rims (Fig. 69). The typology of these vessels is discussed above. Among the lamps in the form of handleless conical cups are P 542, P 543, P 546, P 736, and P 1349. Those that fall into the category of bowls include P 58, P 282, P 288, P 295-PM 32, P 548, P 737, P 1244–P 1247PM 225, P 1294, and P 1295. There is also a single example of a bell-cup lamp (type 5; P 289).

NEOPALATIAL POTTERY

Type 6: Shallow Version of Type 1 Type 6 (Fig. 69) is a lamp connected to type 1 but much shallower (P 294), with a rim diameter of 10.0 cm. It is unpainted. Type 7: Imitations of Stone Prototypes The two examples of type 7 (P 104, P 1483) imitate two different types of stone vessels (Fig. 69). The latter is monochrome on both surfaces. Warren (1969, 257–258, nos. D 182, a libation table, and D 176) presents stone objects that are parallels for P 104 and P 1483, respectively Type 8: Conical Body, Flat Horizontal Incurving Rim, One Nozzle Type 8 is quite common; Figure 70 includes 16 examples. The bases are flat (P 56, P 293, P 298, P 596, P 823, P 1433, P 1435, P 1440, P 1445) or slightly raised (P 278, P 290, P 479, P 1436, P 1441), with diameters ranging between 4.7 and 11.2 cm. Τhe bodies are very shallow, with a clearly conical (P 56, P 284, P 298, P 596, P 823, P 1433, P 1438, P 1440, P 1441, P 1445) or curved profile (P 1435, P 1436). The heights range between 2.5 and 3.7 cm. Τhe rims are wide, horizontal, and incurving, ranging in diameter between 8.4 and 16.0 cm. There was probably initially a “frying pan” handle that is not preserved on any of the specimens, with the exception of a handle attachment (P 1440). These lamps are monochrome on both surfaces (P 293, P 479, P 596, P 823, P 1436, P 1441) or have a band on the interior surface of the rim (P 56). Type 9: Pedestaled Lamps The pedestaled lamps are equipped with a high, cylindrical-tubular foot and have two nozzles (Fig. 71) All examples are fragmentary and unpainted (P 285, P 296, P 544, P 646, P 1248). One example (P 544) has a height of 42.5 cm and a base diameter of 13.5 cm. Type 10: Footed Lamps The base of type 10 is closed underneath, with a form that is either conical or with a torus (P 1442). The lamps may have either two (P 645, P 1249) or one (P 291, P 292, P 732) nozzles (Fig. 72). On the upper surface there are concentric grooves

99

(P 1249). The rim diameters range between 15.0 and 23.6 cm; the preserved base has a diameter of 15.8 cm. Footed lamps are monochrome on both surfaces (P 645 and P 1442). Lamp P 1250 probably belongs to the same type. Catalog Room A P 28 (P85/576; Lr III; Pl. 1). Footed lamp, base and foot fragment. Base d. 13.0; max. dims. 31.0 x 10.0.

Lids Lids are not a common shape in Minoan ceramic assemblages, probably because wooden lids were more often used. Also, because of the nature of the shape, lids are fragile and very rarely preserved in a complete state. The Neopalatial types are: type 1, usually flat, with or without a knob and clearly imitating a wooden prototype; and type 2, slightly domed with a knob or small basket handle. For the type 1 domed lids of House I.1 (P 306, P 1252), a good parallel from a LM IB context, but probably earlier in date, and clearly connected with East Crete, comes from Skinias, Kolokythi in SouthCentral Crete (Mandalaki 2011, 381, fig. 7, middle). For type 2, very similar to example P 878 is an example from Palaikastro (Knappett and Collar 2007, 162–163, 200, fig. 8:41). The catalog includes 22 examples of lids, and 96 additional fragments of this form were identified among the sherd material. It has been observed in Sector I that the lids do not correspond to the preserved closed vessels, as is the situation at most, if not all, Minoan settlements. Lids are rare, with few complete examples. They can be divided

NEOPALATIAL POTTERY

into two types: domed and discoid (Fig. 73). Details of fabric and decoration are presented in Tables 52 and 53. Type 1: Domed Type 1 lids have a slightly domed conical shape, with a thin rim and a knob in the shape of a mushroom (P 105, P 108, P 306, P 649, P 1252). They are unpainted (P 105, P 108, P 306, P 1252) or have a ripple pattern decoration on both surfaces (P 649). The diameters range between 18.5 and 23.4 cm. Type 2: Discoid, Flat All examples of type 2 lids are fragmentary; no indication of a knob is preserved. Diameters range between 6.7 and 30.1 cm. The lids may be monochrome on both surfaces (P 107), or they may have concentric zones of ripple pattern (P 305, P 309, P 1251, P 1446); some are either monochrome on the upper surface only (P 878) or unpainted (P 106, P 308, P 836, P 1447, P 1469).

Rhyta Rhyta form a class of vessels, in different materials and various shapes, which share a common feature: a hole on the lower part to allow liquid to pass through the vessel. Many, or most, rhyta were presumably used for libations, although other domestic uses cannot be excluded, especially in plain undecorated specimens (e.g. funnels). Many ceramic examples have beautiful decorations and others clearly imitate stone or metal prototypes, both in shape and in the treatment of surfaces. Robert Koehl, in his seminal twovolume book Aegean Bronze Rhyta (2006), treated the subject in the most exhaustive and exemplary manner. The both limited in number and not very well preserved Petras material has nothing new to add to his comprehensive analysis. The catalog includes 25 examples of rhyta, and 15 more fragments were identified among the sherd material. There are six different types/shapes, as described below. Technical characteristics of their fabric and decoration are detailed in Tables 54 and 55. Type 1: Closed Shapes Type 1 rhyta (Fig. 74) most likely take the form of jugs (or possibly another closed shape), with a hole in the base, either near the edge (P 1255, P 1258) or in the middle (P 312–P 314, P 599, P 1256). No complete specimen is preserved. The bases are flat, with diameters ranging between 4.3 and 7.7 cm. The bodies were probably ovoid or piriform in shape (the preserved lower body is, in all cases, conical). As for the decoration, examples are either unpainted (P 313) or monochrome (P 314, P 1255); two are decorated with groups of bands (P 312, P 1256), and another has a zone of ripple pattern (P 1258).

NEOPALATIAL POTTERY

Type 2: Open Shapes of Various Types The type 2 rhyta include a bell cup (P 310) and four bowls, one with a ledge rim (P 311) and the other three semi-globular (P 315, P 599, P 1470). The holes in all cases are situated in the center of the base (Fig. 74). Base diameters range between 2.7 and 6.2 cm. Examples P 315, P 599, and P 1470 are monochrome on both surfaces, and P 310 and P 311 are unpainted. Type 3: Ovoid The ovoid rhyton, also called the ostrich-egg rhyton, is also a common type. In the Petras Sector I material it is represented by a single fragmentary example (P 1253). It has a hole in the center of the lower surface and is decorated with stylized floral motifs (Fig. 74). Its maximum preserved diameter is 9.6 cm. A parallel decorated with a running spiral is from Akrotiri (Koehl 2006, 88, no. 101, pl. 11:101) Type 4: Conical The conical rhyton is the most common type in the Neopalatial period, and it is represented in Sector I by four relatively complete examples (P 551, P 740, P 845, P 1254; Fig. 75). One is decorated with zones of ripple pattern (P 845), and the others have a zone of running spiral (P 1254), a foliate band in connection with solid circles (P 740), and a combination of solid circles with a running spiral (P 551). For example P 845, a similar specimen also with ripple pattern decoration comes from Akrotiri (Koehl 2006, 146, no. 489, pl. 35:489). Example P 1254 has a parallel from Gournia (Koehl 2006, 162, no. 634, pl. 40:634). Type 5: Piriform There are two fragmentary specimens of piriform rhyta (P 109, P 483). The first one is decorated with zones of ripple pattern and the second has a floral motif (Fig. 76). Parallels with different decoration come from Rhodes and Enkomi (cf. Koehl 2006, 135, nos. 399, 400, pl. 31:399, 400). Type 6: Cup Rhyta The second most common type of rhyton is the cup form. An interesting complete example (P 30)

and the lower parts of three more (P 598, P 741, P 1257) are preserved (Fig. 76). The bases are high with a torus, ranging in diameter between 4.7 and 6.3 cm. The hole is, in all cases, near the edge of the base. The bodies are piriform with a high center of gravity. A complete specimen (P 30), with a height of 13.2 cm and a rim diameter of 14.0 cm, has metallic features such as very thin walls, a lustrous red surface, and a thin ribbon handle, decorated at the upper attachment with two plastic disks. An exact parallel of P 30, for both the shape and the metallic details, including the nails on the upper attachment of the handle, comes from Archanes (Koehl 2006, 220, no. 1180, pl. 54:1180).

body at the attachment of the handle. It is interesting to note that most specimens come from the upper floor (Lr II of Rooms E and Λ) or had fallen from it (West Courtyard). They were probably used as braziers for the transport of coals to the upper floor (habitation and food consumption areas). Two almost complete specimens are preserved (P 1449, P 1472) along with a body fragment preserving full profile (P 316) and fragments of many others, especially handles, many of them with potters’ marks (P 317-PM 15, P 826-PM 178, 1485-PM 266). The bases are flat (P 1449) or raised (P 1472), and the bodies are conical with more (P 1472) or less (P 316, P 1449) curved profile. The rims are thin and outcurving. The handles are horizontal on the rim with a large knob of elliptical section on the attachment, except for a few with circular sections (P 318, P 742, P 1259). All scuttles are made in cooking fabrics, some of the Palaikastro clay (Fabric Group 12; see Nodarou, this vol. Ch. 4). Base diameters range between 5.3 and 7.7 cm, heights between 5.0 and 8.1 cm. The scuttles are either unpainted or monochrome on both surfaces (P 1472). Technical characteristics of the fabric and decoration are presented in Tables 56 and 57. At Petras there is no evidence for tripod scuttles such as those found at Hagia Triada (Puglisi 2011, 103, nos. T8, T9, pl. X; however, there is also a legless specimen [no. 44, fig. 20:c] that is similar to the Petras scuttles). There are parallels from Mochlos (Barnard et al. 2003, 88–89, IB. 609–IB.615, fig. 53) and Kommos (Rutter 2017, 193–194, figs. 2.60–2.62).

rim, and a vertical loop handle of elliptical section from the rim to the lower body. On the interior surface of the body there are rows of shallow cavities. The following dimensions are preserved on P 111: base diameter 7.5 cm, height: 4.5 cm, rim diameter 16.5 cm. One of the specimens (P 323-PM 19) is monochrome on both surfaces, and the other is monochrome on the exterior surface with added white decoration of arched bands on the interior. As for the contexts, the comments above concerning the scuttles are also valid for this shape, which is also connected with the use of fire: all the specimens come from the upper floor. From the Petras cemetery there are very similar vases, dated to the MM IB–II periods, all with small feet (Tsipopoulou 2012a, fig. 15; Tsipopoulou, ed., 2017, fig. 5:c).

Stands The catalog includes 54 examples of stands, and 25 additional fragments were identified among the sherd material. They all belong to the type usually called “fenestrated stands” as they have openings on the tubular bodies, either rectangular or arched. This is a very rare type of vessel in most Neopalatial settlements, and the large number from a single deposit at Petras must have a special significance. Furthermore, it is interesting to note that all but five specimens are of local production (Fabric Group 2), the rest being connected with Palaikastro (Fabric Group 12). The vast majority of the specimens from House I.1, 29 examples, were found in Layer II of Room Λ, that is, in the main room of the upper floor where large scale food consumption took place (along with some other activities, such as weaving). The stands must have been connected with the feasts as they were used to hold various large serving vessels. No intact specimens are preserved. In a few cases the fragments are large enough to provide information about the details of the shape and the original dimensions. Figures 78–80 present 19 specimens. They are cylindrical vessels with torus bases, open at the bottom, and thick walls. The bodies have arched openings with raised ends. The base diameters range between 12.0 and 30.0 cm, and the body diameters are between and 10.0 and 16.8 cm. Most specimens are monochrome on the exterior (P 32, P 114, P 324, P 326, P 327, P 340, P 343, P 351, P 355, P 1450, P 1451). Only one example is monochrome on both surfaces (P 343). Details of fabric and decoration are presented in Tables 58 and 59. Knappett and Cunningham (2012, 148, no. 256, fig. 5.10) present a parallel from Palaikastro.

Pyxides The catalog includes three examples of pyxides, and 25 more fragments were identified among the sherd material (Fig. 81). The shape is very rare in general, as medium or small containers must have been made also of perishable materials (e.g., wood). In Sector I the shape is represented only by four rim sherds. The bodies must have been globulardepressed or piriform and the rims more or less wide, flat, and incurving, in order to accommodate the lid. The rim diameters range between 14 and 15

Thick 10YR 5/4 (dull yellowish brown) slip. Paint 7.5YR 4/2 (grayish brown), wide band and floral decoration ext., spatter decoration int. Plastic ring at junction of body/foot.

Strainer Pyxides Four examples of strainer pyxides are presented in the catalog, and fragments of three more were identified among the sherd material (Fig. 81). Strainer pyxides have a high foot, hollow internally and conical-cylindrical in shape, at the upper part of which there is the strainer. The body is globular or piriform. The strainer P 357 is monochrome, and P 1263 has a band at the junction of the foot with the body, as well as a schematized floral motif on the foot and the body. The function of this shape is not clear. It has been thoroughly discussed by Maria Andreadaki-Vlasaki (1987), who connects the beautifully decorated Stavromenos (Rethymnon) example with the production of aromatic substances, and more recently by Lefteris Platon (2016), who believes that it was connected with food production and that the form was essentially ceremonial, used for social display during important dining ceremonies.

Scored Basins (Beehives) The catalog includes 14 examples of scored basins, and three more fragments were identified among the sherd material (Fig. 82). Twelve specimens are presented, only one of them complete (P 749). Another preserves the base, with a diameter of 34.0 cm (P 363). These vessels must have been stored in House I.1, as they were not found in any of the open spaces. Four of them were recovered from Layer II of Room Λ, while another four were on the floor of Area Φ (auxiliary to the kitchen Ξ). Τhe preserved fragments offer data on the details of the profile. They are made of coarse clay and have deep rhomboidal incisions on the interior surface of the lower body. The complete specimen has a flat base measuring 25.0 cm in diameter and a cylindrical body with curved profile. Its height is 29.0 cm. The rim,

with a diameter of 34.6 cm, is rounded and incurving, following the profile of the body. All specimens are unpainted. Table 60 presents the technical attributes of the fabrics.

Late Minoan II and III Pottery

Overview The quantity of the LM II and LM III pottery is limited, due mainly to the limited reoccupation of Sector I, as well as the many centuries of continuous cultivation of the area that destroyed the later layers, including architecture, close to the surface. It should be noted, however, that the variety of the shapes and the quality of the pottery suggest that the LM II and LM III habitation, despite the scarcity and the poor state of the preserved architectural remains, was not a seasonal, insignificant one. The relatively large concentration of material in Area Σ (35 examples) is noteworthy, although there is no certain connection with the very poorly preserved architecture there. The chronology of the Postpalatial pottery is mostly LM IIIA:1 and LM IIIA:2, with a lesser occurrence of LM IIIC. Sherds dated to the LM II and LM IIIB periods were very few. The remnants of 23 different shapes, both open and closed, were collected from the excavations. The catalog contains 98 MEs. The shapes represented include pithoi, pithoid jars, basins, kalathoi,

amphorae, amphoroid kraters, stirrup jars, bowls, globular cups, conical cups, footed cups, kylikes, handleless conical cups, deep bowls, lamps, lids, feeding bottles, stands, pyxides, scored basins (beehives), fireboxes, alabastra, and jugs. Of particular importance is the sherd of a Knossian LM II Ephyrean goblet, one of the very few found at Petras to date (P 858; Fig. 90, below; Pl. 27). Table 61 contains the frequencies for the cataloged MEs related to the most frequently encountered types of vases in each context (not the sherds). The description of the types of clay (fine, medium, coarse), colors, the presence of cores, the slip, and the paint is presented in Table 62, and the types of decoration are detailed in Table 63. Cataloged MEs preserving only traces of paint are not included in the latter table. Photographs of some of the pottery finds, grouped by context, may be found in Plates 27–29. The petrographic analysis undertaken by Eleni Nodar­ ou included several samples of LM III pottery variously assigned to Fabric Groups 1–4, 12, and a loner category (see this vol., Nodarou,

118

METAXIA TSIPOPOULOU

Ch. 4; see Table 64). The problems of making fabric group identifications through the macroscopic study of pottery fabrics has already been stressed in the discussion of the Neopalatial material (see discussion in Ch. 2, pp. 12–13); for the same reason the identifications made for the LM III material should also be considered tentative rather than definitive. Among the items identified macroscop­ ically there were 10 examples of Fabric Group 2, the coarse phyllite Siteia Bay fabric; two examples of Fabric Group 9, the granitic-dioritic Mirabello Bay fabric; four examples of Fabric Group 12, the fine red, quartz-rich Palaikastro fabric; and a Knossian import. The fabrics of the remaining 22 cataloged items included in the macroscopic study could not be identified (Table 65; Fig. 83). The presentation of the pottery in this chapter follows the same format used for the Neopalatial pottery in Chapter 2. The pottery is organized by shape, and each section begins with a general analysis of the features of each shape and its subdivisions. Parallels are usually given either for the shape in general or for each specific type. This discussion is followed by the catalog for each shape, presented by room or area in the order adopted in the preceding volume concerned with the excavations (Tsipopoulou 2016). For the LM III pottery excavated in the general area of the Petras palace and from the cemetery, the reader may wish to consult earlier publications (Tsipopoulou 1997; 2012b, fig. 14). A discussion of the typology of LM II and LM III pottery may be found in the work of Erik Hallager and Birgitta Hallager (eds., 2016, 208–273, fig. 76).

patterns (Ρ 848). Another specimen (Ρ 63) has a plastic band with incised fishbone (cf. Tsipopoulou 1997, figs. 7–11). All specimens are unpainted. One more sherd (Ρ 64) comes from a vertical ribbon handle of a LM IIIA pithos, made of medium clay with painted decoration. Christakis (2005, 71–83) discusses LM III pithoi in general. LM III pithoi with painted decoration have profiles similar to the unpainted examples from Petras (e.g., a specimen from Hagia Triada decorated with an octopus: Privitera 2015, pl. XXIX).

P 848 (P89/bag 294/10; Lr I; Fig. 84). Pithos, body sherd. Max. dims. 9.4 x 14.0 x 2.4. Coarse 2.5YR 6/6 (orange) clay, with inclusions, 7.5R 5/2 (grayish red) core. Incised decoration, net pattern on plastic band.

Pithoi Five sherds from pithoi are described in the catalog (Fig. 84). They belong to the common LM IIIA–IIIC type with a torus base, 26 cm in diameter in the preserved example (Ρ 62), horizontal rim with a plastic ring below it, 35 cm in diameter (Ρ 1), and raised bands with impressed decoration of fingerprints (Ρ 1) or incised with rhomboidal

Pithoid Jars Among the 15 cataloged pithoid jars, two types may be distinguished, the first with a cylindrical body and a large mouth and the second with a globular or ovoid body and a narrow mouth (Figs. 85, 86). Included are three rim and body sherds (P 65, P 70,

LATE MINOAN II AND III POTTERY

P 125), all of which are horizontal, flat, and more or less outcurving. Below the rim there is a plastic ring with finger impressions. The bodies are cylindrical with a slightly curved profile. All specimens are unpainted. Nine fragmentary examples come from the rim and the body (P 124, P 671, P 676, P 682, P 683, P 850, P 1298, P 1363, P 1364); there is no preserved evidence for the form of the base, which must have been flat. The body of these pithoid jars was either ovoid (Ρ 124, Ρ 676, P 683) or globular (Ρ 671, Ρ 850, Ρ 1298, Ρ 1363, Ρ 1364). The diameters range between 13 and 36 cm. The rims are either of trapezoidal section and incurving (Ρ 124, Ρ 682) or of elliptical section and outcurving or vertical (Ρ 671, Ρ 676, Ρ 850, Ρ 1298, Ρ 1363, Ρ 1364). There is evidence for two horizontal handles of circular section on Ρ 1364 and probably also on Ρ 1363. Almost all specimens are made of medium clay. They are either unpainted (Ρ 671, Ρ 683, Ρ 850, Ρ 1363, Ρ 1364), monochrome (Ρ 676, Ρ 1298), or decorated with a band on the rim (Ρ 124, Ρ 682). Jars P 676 and P 682 have also a band on the interior surface of the rim. Cylindrical pithoid jars, usually with a plastic ring below the rim, first appear in LM IIIB and continue into the LM IIIC, when they become very common (Tsipopoulou 2004, 108). There are additional examples of LM III A:2–LM IIIB pithoid jars in the area of the Petras palace (Tsipopoulou 1997, fig. 12:d–h). Other examples come from Mochlos (Smith 2010, fig. 64:IIB 776, similar to P 1364; 64:IIB 769, similar to P 683) and Kommos (Watrous 1992, fig. 43:1139; also Rutter 2017, fig. 2.40, for pithoid jars with rims similar to P 671). LM II examples similar to P 1363 come from Palaikastro (MacGillivray, Sackett, and Driessen 1998, fig. 10:6, also with two vertical handles; see also a LM IIIA:1 parallel: Hatzaki 2007c, fig. 3.44:237).

Basins Basins are relatively large vessels with flat bases and rather shallow conical bodies, often with curved profiles and thick horizontal rims (Figs. 87, 88). No complete example is preserved. The catalog includes 16 fragments that belong to two types, which are descibed below. Type 1: Conical Basins P 4, P 134, P 492, P 560, P 611, P 684-PM 118, P 777, and P 894 are very similar to the cylindrical pithoid jars (see above) in the profile of the rim, but basins are shallower and with a conical body, often with a slightly curved profile. The rims are rounded (P 134, P 492, P 560, P 684-PM 118), vertical (P 777), horizontal (P 894), or outcurved (Ρ 611), with diameters ranging between 21.0 and 47.5

cm. Under the rim all specimens have a plastic ring with finger impressions. Handles are not preserved, but there might have been two horizontal handles high on the body (Fig. 87). There are basins from Zakros with similar profile details (Zoitopoulos 2017 88, 89, nos. A57, A58, pl. 49:A57, A58). A basin decorated with bands and dated to the LM IIIA:2, similar to P 134, comes from the Little Palace at Knossos (Hatzaki 2005, fig. 4.7). Type 2: Conical, Rather Shallow Body Basin Ρ 1454 has a conical, rather shallow body. Its base diameter is 39.0 cm, and its height is 10.8 cm. The rim of this basin type is either of elliptical section and outcurving (Ρ 778, Ρ 852) or thin and vertical (Ρ 1454, Ρ 1459). Both Ρ 852 and P 1459 preserve the attachment of two horizontal handles of circular section below the rim (Fig. 88). A parallel for P 1367 may be seen at Palaikastro (MacGillivray, Sackett, and Driessen 1998, fig. 12, Well 605, LM IIIA:1; also Hatzaki 2007c, fig. 3.33:233, LM IIIA:2).

Kalathos The kalathos is a type of vessel more commonly found in tombs than in settlements. It has a wide base, conical body, wide, horizontal rim, and two basket handles on the rim. Kalathoi of this type are usually richly decorated, often in panels. The variations in the profile are not very significant from LM IIIA to IIIC. Vili Apostolakou gives a LM IIIA:2

Αmphora Only one amphora sherd (P 692) from the neck and rim of a LM IIIA vessel is presented in the catalog (Fig. 89). It is funnel shaped, with a rim diameter of 12 cm, and it preserves the attachment of a handle. Parallels come from Zakros (Zoitopoulos 2017, pl. 40:α), from the Palaikastro wells (MacGillivray, Sackett, and Driessen 2007, fig. 4.31:645), and from Kommos (Watrous 1992, fig. 30:702; similar to Furumark 1972, fig. 7, Furumark Shape [FS] 69/109).

Stirrup Jars Stirrup jars are represented by two LM IIIA:2 sherds, the first from the shoulder and the second from the shoulder and handle of small examples decorated with spirals and Minoan flowers (Fig. 89). The bodies must have been piriform, with a high center of gravity. Parallels may be found in the work of Apostolakou (1998, figs. 40, 41, 59). Area Σ P 1382 (P90/bag 223/7; Lr I; Fig. 89).

Amphoroid Krater

South-Southeast Courtyard

A single sherd from the neck and rim of a mediumsized amphoroid krater, dated to LM IIIA:2, is presented in the catalog (cf. Zoitopoulos 2017, 151).

P 877 (P90/bag 86/3; Lr I). Bowl, rim and upper body fragment. Max. dims. 2.6 x 3.8 x 0.4. Slightly outcurving rim. Fine 2.5YR 6/6 (orange) clay. Self slip.

Only one sherd is presented of the bowl type similar to the handleless conical cups (see the discussion on the Neopalatial counterparts in this volume, Ch. 2). It comes from a surface layer of the South-Southeast Courtyard, where LM III activity was identified. Based on the dating of the rest of the pottery in the area, the bowl sherd can be assigned to LM IIIA.

One-Handled Globular Cups Three fragmentary specimens of one-handled globular cups, dated to the LM IIIA period, are presented in the catalog. These cups belong to very

LATE MINOAN II AND III POTTERY

common types both in shape and decoration (Fig. 90). Cup Ρ 755 was probably imported from Palaikastro and P 1386 from the Myrsini-Tourloti area. A parallel for the papyrus motif on P 755 comes from the acropolis mediana of Phaistos (Borgna 2003, pl. 16:169). The large specimen, Ρ 9, is probably a Knossian import, LM II/LM IIIA:1 in date (cf. a LM II example from Kommos: Watrous 1992, fig. 28:680, with a somewhat similar decoration; see also a LM IIIA:1 example from Hagia Triada, similar in shape and decoration, now in the Pigorini Museum: Privitera 2015, pl. XXII:a). For P 1386, a monochrome LM IIIA:1 parallel from Knossos may be cited (Warren 1997, fig. 12, lower row, left). Other globular cups come from the palatial area at Petras (Tsipopoulou 1997, fig. 27, left). Similar LM IIIA:2 cups are also found on Melos (Mountjoy 2009, fig. 2:19, decorated with a papyrus motif). Cups from the Isopata cemetery at Knossos are also parallels for P 1386 (Preston 2007, fig. 24:7.1, 7.2), and there is also a parallel from the Little Palace at Knossos (Hatzaki 2005, fig. 4.1:1). The profile is typical both for LM II and LM IIIA:1. LM II parallels may be observed among the finds from the South House at Knossos (Mountjoy 2003, fig. 4.30:480, 481, 488). Other examples come from Malia (Pelon 1970, pl. XVI:5, no. 111, decorated with double spirals, LM II) and Kommos (Watrous 1992, fig. 24). The globular cups from Phaistos are not different (Borgna 2001, pl. 16:18, LM IIIA:2; cf. Furumark 1972, fig. 13, FS 213, LH IIIA:1). Room A P 9 (P86/bag 51/2; Lr II; Fig. 90).

One-Handled Conical Cup There is one almost complete example of a one-handled conical cup (P 1389). It has an S-profile and is monochrome on both surfaces. It is similar to one example from Palaikastro, considered an import from Knossos (MacGillivray 2007, 140, no. 663, fig. 4.33). Area Σ P 1389 (P90/bag 195/1; Lr I; Fig. 90). One-handled conical cup, rim, body, and handle fragment. H. pres. 4.5; rim d. 11.0; th. 0.4; max. dims. 3.8 x 6.8 x 0.3. Body: S-profile; rim: wide, circular section, following body profile; handle: ribbon, arched, starting at rim. Fine 2.5YR 6/6 (orange) clay. Paint 5YR 6/8 (orange), monochrome on both surfaces with narrow band on handle preserved.

Footed Cups Five examples of footed cups are presented in the catalog (Fig. 90). They belong to two types. The first is the so-called champagne glass cup, which has a low foot with convex profile. The second has a higher, clearly conical foot. Both types are probably dated to the LM IIIA:2–IIIB. Hallager mentions a LM IIIB champagne glass cup that is a parallel for P 14 (1997, 21, fig. 2, second row, right). Cup P 506 was probably a one-handled footed cup (cf. Hallager 1997, fig. 32). Cup P 866 was a two-handled footed cup (cf. Hallager 1997, fig. 31). They are both LM IIIB in date. There is also a Knossian LM IIIA:2 example with a lower stem (Warren 1997, 167, fig. 19:677). A similar cup comes from Kommos (Rutter and Van de Moortel 2006, pl. 3.78:67a/27, LM IIIA:2).

Kylikes Contrary to the situation at many other sites in East Crete, many kylikes were found at Petras, especially in Sector I, but also in the area of the palace. The catalog contains 25 fragmentary examples (Figs. 90, 91). They are all made of a very fine buff clay. No complete specimen is preserved, but the selected sherds offer considerable information on the details of the profile and the dating. All stems are vertically pierced, with only one exception (Ρ 1398). Of special interest are the kylikes decorated with murex shells, which are either imported from the Peloponnese (the Zygouries workshop) or are very faithful copies of the Peloponnesian kylikes made in Central Crete (Ρ 805, Ρ 1392). Although the majority of the preserved examples of kylikes are dated to LM IIIA:2, there are

several very early LM IIIA:1 specimens (e.g., Ρ 719; for the shape of this specimen, see Banou and Re­ themiotakis 1997, fig. 14:5; also Platon 1997a, figs 11, 13; cf. Furumark 1972, fig. 16, FS 269). There is also one LM IIIB example (Ρ 1397) and at least one LM II Ephyrean goblet (Ρ 858; Fig. 90; Pl. 27) of Knossian origin (see Hallager 1997, fig. 13; cf. Furumark 1972, fig. 16, FS 254; see also a very similar example from Zakros: Zoitopoulos 2017, pl. 15:β.a). It is very interesting to note in this context that in recent years imported Ephyrean goblets, usually along with other typical LM II shapes, have been found in all major sites of East Crete (Palaikastro, Mochlos, and now Petras and Zakros). These finds fill what was considered to be a gap in the chronological sequence of the area after the LM IB destructions. Hallager (1997, 20–21) discusses the typology of Cretan kylikes. Examples of Ephyrean goblets similar to P 858 are illustrated in several works (e.g., from Knossos: Hood and De Jong 1952, fig. 9:1.1, 1.2, similar to P 719, P 201, P 1401; Popham 1984, pl. 57; from Kommos, see Rutter 2017, fig. 291:X14a.2/1). LM IIIA kylikes were recovered from the Stratigraphical Museum excavations at Knossos (Warren 1982–1983, fig. 48; similar to P 1403) and from Knossos, Sellopoulo (Popham 1974, fig. 7:3/4 and fig. 9, the two upper rows). At Mochlos, kylikes are more frequent in the settlement than in the cemetery (for examples similar to P 719 and P 805, see Smith 2010, 33–39, nos. IIB 167 [LM IIIA:2], IIB 168, fig. 7; also, for the motif of P 805, cf. Furumark 1972, fig. 51:2–4, Furumark Motif [FM] 23). It is very interesting to note that at Mochlos the LM IIIA:1 kylikes are not made in a local fabric but in a very fine buff clay with few to no inclusions, probably from Knossos; also, both LM IIIA:1 and LM IIIA:2 kylikes are often burnished. The same observations may be made at Petras. For the Zygouries-type kylikes, there are examples from Melos (Mountjoy 2009, fig. 15:221, 223 [Furumark 1972, fig. 51, FM 23]) and the Unexplored Mansion at Knossos (Popham 1984, pl. 180:4, 9, LM IIIB). A parallel for P 1397 comes from the Little Palace at Knossos (Hatzaki 2005, fig. 4.5, LM IIIB; and for LM IIIA kylikes with low stem, see pl. 4.6 in the same work). There are also examples similar to P 1403 and P 1404 from Malia

Τhe typical LM III type of lid (mostly for cylindrical pyxides) has a cylindrical shape and a basket handle of circular section in the middle of the upper surface (P 303, P 307, P 738, P 739; fragmentary, not preserving the handle). One specimen is almost complete (Ρ 1457). The heights range between 3.5 and 5.1 cm. All examples are unpainted except Ρ 307, which has concentric bands on the upper surface, and P 739, which preserves traces of paint and probably was monochrome.

especially jugs. The sherd P 1453 comes from the shoulder and the beginning of the spout (Fig. 93; Pl. 28). Late Minoan IIIA parallels come from Mochlos (Smith 2010, fig. 43:IIB 666, IIB 667).

Stands Stands are very rare in the LM III period and are usually found in tombs. One fragmentary example (P 1452) was found in Sector I, imported from Palaikastro. The lower part is missing. The body has a cylindrical-convex profile. The rim is pronounced. The stand is decorated with a zone of spirals, and it should be dated to LM IIIA. Most LM III stands belong to the fenestrated type, similar to their Neopalatial counterparts, and they have usually rich painted decoration. The Petras example has solid walls. Apostolakou (1998, 49–51, with bibliography) presents a general discussion of LM III stands.

Petrographic Analysis of Ceramic Material from House I.1 Eleni Nodarou

Introduction and Overview of Previous Work in the Area The ceramic assemblage from House I.1 at Petras reflects the complex stratigraphy of the site, which is characterized by many architectural and cera­ mic phases (Tsipopoulou 2016). Consequently, the pottery assemblage comprises a variety of shapes, wares, and fabrics extending in time from the Prepalatial to the LM III period. A macroscopic study of the assemblage (see this vol., Ch. 2, pp. 12–13) made it apparent that the metamorphic fabrics constitute the predominant component in the coarse wares and are encountered over a long period of time and in a multitude of vessel shapes. The aim of the petrographic analysis was to investigate variability particularly within the metamorphic fabrics, identify potential imports, and to make inferences about continuity and change in the clay recipes found at Petras on a diachronic basis. Variability in ceramic fabrics at Petras was already indicated by previous analyses carried out on selected material from Siteia, especially the Neopalatial

pottery from the survey around the hill of Petras that was included in the petrographic study carried out by Day (1991, 1995, 1997) around the bay of Siteia. This study demonstrated the presence of various fabrics originating in the vicinity of the modern village of Achladia and also of imports from other parts of Crete, namely the area of Gournia/ Kalo Chorio, the Mesara, and Palaikastro. The present study forms part of a larger analytical project aiming at investigating pottery fabrics and in turn pottery consumption at Petras. The material from House I.1 is studied comparatively, within a diachronic perspective, along with the pottery from two neighboring sites, the FN–EM I settlement and the Prepalatial rock shelter at Kephala Petras (Nodarou 2012) and the MM IB–IIB assemblages from House Tomb 2 and Ceremonial Area 1 at the cemetery of Petras (Nodarou 2017). Further comparative material includes the pottery from other contemporary sites such as Papadiokampos, Mochlos, and Zakros, providing indications on the distribution of pottery during the Neopalatial and Postpalatial period.

Petrographic Analysis Because the material from House I.1 was studied as part of a larger project on pottery analysis at Petras, sampling was not restricted to pottery from the main period of habitation. Rather, we tried to incorporate all the main ceramic phases present at the site. Thus, the results of the study may be compared with the existing material from other locations at Petras and will provide comparisons for future sampling in the area. In a multiperiod assemblage like that of House I.1 it is not surprising to have a range of fabric groups, some with a substantial number of samples and others with only a few, as well as several loners, that is, samples that do not belong in any of the existing groups due to differences in their mineralogy and/ or texture. The majority of the assemblage is manufactured with metamorphic raw materials related to the Phyllite-Quartzite series and the fossiliferous marls, and small-scale sampling of raw materials in the area of Siteia shows the connection of the pottery consumed at Petras with the resources of the Siteia hinterland (for the geology of the area, see Papastamatiou 1959; Gradstein 1972). However, there are also fabrics that are known to have been imported from other areas on Crete, such as the northern isthmus of Ierapetra and the far eastern end of the island, as well as from off-island sources. A total of 15 fabric groups have been identified. In the following report they are categorized on the basis of their coarseness and mineralogical composition. The coarse fabrics are divided into subgroups connected with metamorphic raw materials and those connected with other types of clay sources. The fine wares are presented separately. A concordance of shapes, fabrics, and dates of the sampled material can be found in Table 64.

Coarse Metamorphic Fabrics Fabric Group 1: Coarse to Semi Coarse Metamorphic in a Fossiliferous Matrix Samples: PET 03/8, 03/15, 03/21–03/23, 03/27, 03/30, 03/31, 03/58, 03/64, 03/65, 03/70–03/75, 03/78, 03/79, 03/83, 03/108, 03/131, 03/142, 03/143, 03/145

Fabric Group 1 is the most common fabric in the assemblage (Pl. 30A). The matrix ranges in color from dark reddish brown to brown and greenish brown, the latter due to the high firing temperature; it is optically inactive. The nonplastic inclusions display the typical composition of the Phyllite-Quartzite series, characterized by a mainly fine-grained brown phyllite with smaller amounts of quartzite, quartzite-mica schist, and sandstone. Rarely, it also contains siltstone, micritic limestone/calcite, and chert. The clay matrix is packed with micritic material, which, along with the regular occurrence of microfossils, indicates the presence of a Neogene marl mixed with material from the metamorphic series. Small-scale clay sampling carried out in the area of Siteia shows the compatibility of this fabric with the fossiliferous marls of the Achladia Formation tempered with the red clays from the PhylliteQuartzite series. In the example shown in Plate 30B the phyllitic material derives from the village of Stavromenos, but similar deposits exist at Roussa Ekklisia near Petras and elsewhere in the area. The vessels of this group are made in a buff-firing clay, and they are predominantly medium-sized closed vessels such as jars, jugs, amphorae, and small pithoi. There are also a few open vessels, namely fruitstands, basins, and cups. Most are decorated, either with a red, black, or white slip or with more elaborate decoration. Most of the vessels made in this fabric belong to the Neopalatial period. There are only a few that are either earlier (MM IB) or later (LM III), and they seem to have been strictly local products. The fabric finds parallels with Day’s fabric 1, which is also encountered at Klimataria, Zou, AchladiaPlatyskinos, and Achladia-Riza (1995, 153–154) and seems to represent the product of a small number of workshops, if not a single one, operating in the area of Achladia at least in the LM IA period. The presence of two or more kiln structures excavated by Platon (1952, 1956) at Achladia and Zou corroborates the evidence of pottery production in the valley.

Fabric Group 2: Coarse Phyllite PET 03/32, 03/35, 03/40, 03/43, 03/44, 03/48–03/50, 03/54, 03/56, 03/59, 03/62

Fabric Group 2 is characterized by the presence of an orangish-red to dark reddish-brown firing matrix

ranging from optically active to inactive (Pls. 31A, 32A). The nonplastic inclusions consist of low-grade metamorphic rock fragments, namely phyllite and quartzite, set in a fine groundmass composed primarily of monocrystalline quartz in varying quantities. The secondary nonplastic components include sandstone, micritic limestone, chert, and biotite mica laths. This mineralogical composition is very similar to that of Fabric Group 1, but the samples in this fabric do not display the same standardization. There are compositional and textural differences showing that Fabric Group 2 represents a different recipe. One important distinction is the absence of microfossils. Another is the variability in the phyllites (in Fabric Group 1 the majority of the metamorphic material consists of fine-grained brown phyllites, whereas in Fabric Group 2 there are also coarser-grained fragments in a golden brown color composed of biotite mica and quartz, rare fragments of white mica phyllite-schist, and some fragments displaying folding of the schistosity. Finally, the Fabric Group 2 samples display variability in their firing, with some samples having been fired at temperatures lower than 750°C as indicated by the optically active clay matrix. The fabric is connected with the Phyllite-Quartzite series outcropping in Siteia and the associated red alluvial deposits containing metamorphic rocks. The small-scale clay sampling is indicative of the variability in metamorphic materials within these deposits. The photos in Plates 31A and 31B show the similarity between a pottery sample from Petras and a clay sample from a road cut near Roussa Ekklisia, with the fine brown phyllite being the predominant component; similarly, a pottery sample and a clay from Episkopi, shown in Plates 32A and 32B, are characterized by more frequent quartz and a finegrained purple phyllite/metamorphic siltstone. The shapes represented are of domestic function, primarily pithoi, pithoid jars, and a few cooking vessels. Most belong to the Neopalatial period, but there are also a few earlier (MM I–MM II) and some later (LM III) in date.

Comment on Fabric Groups 1 and 2 Fabric Groups 1 and 2 comprise the majority of the coarse wares consumed at Petras during the Neopalatial period. Their mineralogical composition

133

is related to the Phyllite-Quartzite series, and clay sampling shows that the raw materials are compatible, respectively, with the marl and alluvial deposits outcropping in the broader area of Siteia. The main difference between the two is both compositional and functional: the use of a calcareous raw material for the production of mediumsized decorated serving and transport vessels for Fabric Group 1 versus the use of a red noncalcareous raw material for the production of plain domestic coarse wares for Fabric Group 2. This shows that at a rather local level there was specialization and standardization in the production of the main coarse wares. Whether there was also specialization in the workshops manufacturing them cannot be answered with the present data.

Fabric Group 3: Coarse with Elongate Phyllites (Palaikastro) Samples: PET 03/34, 03/37–03/39, 03/45–03/47, 03/51, 03/57, 03/61, 03/77, 03/85, 03/87, 03/90, 03/98, 03/124, 03/132, 03/133

Fabric Group 3 (Palaikastro) is a coarse metamorphic fabric that is characterized by a dark reddishbrown and optically inactive matrix, and in many cases it exhibits color differentiation between the dark gray/black core and the reddish-brown margins (Pl. 33A). In terms of mineralogy, the predominant component of this fabric group is large fragments of elongate silvery and golden brown phyllite. Other nonplastics are very rare (e.g., quartzite, sandstone, and micrite), but in some samples there is a quartz-rich matrix. What makes this fabric stand out as a separate group is its coarseness and the packing of the inclusions, as both fractions are very densely packed. The vessels represented are pithoid jars and cooking wares in equal number. Their dates are mainly LM I and LM III, but there are also a few earlier examples. The fabric, which contains almost exclusively very elongate phyllites in a siliceous matrix, is considered to be connected with the area around Palaikastro. It is identified as such microscopically and macroscopically; it is dark red to dark pinkishbrown firing, occasionally with uneven oxidation of the biscuit, with red margins and dark gray core. The metamorphic elongate inclusions are in most

134

examples visible to the naked eye. Imports from Palaikastro have been identified mainly among the LM III fine wares from Mochlos and Chrysokamino (Nodarou 2007, 2010) and, most recently, in the coarse wares (transport and cooking) of the Neopalatial assemblage from Bramiana on the south coast of East Crete (Nodarou 2021). A fabric thought to originate from Palaikastro, with parallels at Stavros, Analoukas, and Achladia, has been described by Day (1995, 157) in the study of the Neopalatial pottery from the Petras survey. The only exception is that in that description the optical activity of the groundmass points toward lower firing, or what we consider here as broadly Siteian production (Fabric Group 2). It is high likely that there is a range of fabrics connected with Palaikastro, and this issue deserves further investigation with archaeological samples and raw materials.

Fabric Group 4: Coarse with Green Altered Rock Fragments

well as in the Early Geometric assemblage from Kavousi Vronda (Nodarou forthcoming b). It has been described by Day in the Petras survey material (Day 1995, 154–155) and has parallels at Achladia, Klimataria, Analoukas, and Zou. It is considered to be a product of the Achladia valley. Among the Neogene deposits of the area, Day (1995, 155) reports clay samples containing the “greenstone” from Hagios Spyridon. Our recent clay sampling in the area of Chamaizi demonstrated that the green altered component in association with fine-grained brown phyllite is also common there (Pl. 34A). The vessels represented are almost exclusively medium-sized pithoi and jars ranging in date from Middle Minoan to LM III. It remains to confirm with further archaeological and geological sampling whether it constitutes the product of the Achladia valley or originates from the broader area of Chamaizi.

Fabric Group 5: Coarse Metamorphic with Muscovite Mica Schist

Fabric Group 4 has a red firing color with an optically inactive matrix (Pl. 33B). The nonplastic inclusions consist of a multitude of low-grade metamorphic rocks, mainly fine-grained brown phyllites, but also gray and golden brown phyllites, some quartzite, chert, and very few fragments of sandstone and micritic limestone. There are also a few fossils. In the fine fraction there are small fragments of biotite, some quartz fragments (not densely packed), as well as biotite and a few white mica laths. The main characteristic of this fabric, though, is the regular presence of highly altered (possibly chloritized) rock fragments most likely of igneous origin. These have a dark green color and a muddy texture (possibly due to the alteration). The presence of this material is constant, but it does not occur in large quantities and has not been encountered in any of the other metamorphic fabrics. Fabric Group 4 has been encountered at Petras in pottery assemblages as early the EM III–MM IA period (Nodarou 2017, 132–134) and continues in use during the Neopalatial period. It is present in significant quantities in the Neopalatial material from Papadiokampos (Nodarou, pers. obv.) as

Fabric Group 5 is characterized by the dark reddishbrown and optically inactive matrix that is rather common in the metamorphic fabrics of Petras (Pl. 34B). What differentiates it from the others is the presence of coarse muscovite mica-schist fragments that give the vessels their characteristic shiny appearance. It is very homogeneous in the composition and texture of the groundmass; along with the mica-schist there are also fragments of fine-grained brown phyllite, biotite, quartzite, small fragments of quartz densely distributed in the clay matrix, and rare fragments of the altered igneous greenstone seen in Fabric Group 4. The fine fraction contains small quartz and biotite mica laths. A similar fabric has been recorded in the Prepalatial pottery from Mochlos (Brogan, Kaiser, and Nodarou 2018), while clay sampling in the vicinity of Mochlos near the modern village of Sfaka (Pl. 35A) indicates that similar deposits exist also at Mochlos and all the way to Chamaizi. Therefore, this fabric seems connected with the PhylliteQuartzite series of the north coast in the broader

area of Mochlos-Chamaizi. A phyllitic fabric with mica-schist has also been encountered in the Hellenistic amphorae from Trypetos, and it, too, was considered to be of broadly Siteian origin (Vogeikoff-Brogan, Nodarou, and Boileau 2008, 328). The vessels of this group are all of domestic character, consisting mainly of cooking wares, along with a basin and two painted bowls. The bowls display a compositional difference that may be significant (they contain a few fragments of micritic limestone that is occasionally fossiliferous, which could be indicative of a variant in the recipe used for the manufacture of the finer bowls. However, this can be confirmed only through further sampling. All vessels in this fabric group belong to the Neopalatial period. Sample PET 03/14 (Pl. 35B) is also characterized by a micaceous fabric, but it is different from the main group. The matrix is finer, and the groundmass does not contain the densely packed quartz fragments. The mica-schist fragments are larger and constitute the predominant nonplastic component, while the various types of phyllite seen in the main group are lacking. Finally, the fine fraction contains only mica laths. This highly micaceous composition is not compatible with a local or a Cretan origin at least in relation to the existing comparative material. The vessel is an amphora, and it could be an off-island import.

Fabric Group 6: Coarse Metamorphic with Dark Siltstones in a Quartz-Rich Matrix Samples: PET 03/20, 03/76, 03/129

Fabric Group 6 is characterized by the presence of coarse fragments of metamorphosed siltstones in a fine quartz-rich matrix (Pl. 36A). The siltstone fragments are very homogeneous; in most cases they are very fine grained, while in others they contain some quartz. The other nonplastic components comprise quartz, quartzite, sandstone, and very little micritic limestone. The fine fraction is dominated by small fragments of quartz evenly distributed in the groundmass. There are also fossils and a few clay pellets. The color and homogeneity of the siltstones, as well as the quartz-rich matrix, differentiate this group from the other metamorphic fabrics. There

135

are exact petrographic parallels in the Neopalatial and Postpalatial assemblages from Zakros (Nodarou, pers. obv.), and the siltstones match the purple metamorphic rock outcrops in the broader area of Zakros locally known as violifa (βιολίφα). The vessels represented are two LM I closed vases with painted decoration and a MM II amphora with white-on-dark decoration. They are undoubtedly imported from Zakros.

Fabric Group 7: Coarse with Gray Phyllite in a Quartz-Rich Matrix Samples: PET 03/60, 03/121, 03/122, 03/134, 03/135

Fabric Group 7 has a brown to grayish-brown firing base clay with elongate phyllite fragments set in a fine, quartz-rich matrix (Pl. 36B). The color of the phyllite inclusions is most often silvery but may also range from golden brown to dark brown. The other nonplastic constituents are quartz, quartzite, sandstone, a little chert, and very rare epidote. The fine fraction is dominated by densely packed small quartz fragments. The color and elongate shape of the phyllite is very reminiscent of Fabric Group 3, which is considered to originate from Palaikastro. The firing of the base clay and the density of the quartz fragments in the groundmass, however, are quite different, and for this reason these samples are grouped separately. The vessels represented are all closed shapes bearing dark or white-on-dark decoration, and their dates range from MM IA to MM III–LM IA. There is no doubt as to the East Cretan origin of this fabric, but whether it is from Palaikastro or elsewhere is a question that needs to be addressed with further sampling. It is also worth investigating whether it constitutes a recipe for decorated transport vessels of the Protopalatial period.

Fabric Group 8: Coarse with Dark Phyllite in a Calcareous Matrix Samples: PET 03/81, 03/82

Fabric Group 8, also known as the Petras fabric, is macroscopically very distinct: it is characterized by a whitish to greenish clay and fine, elongate, dark inclusions of metamorphic nature (Pl. 37A). In thin

136

ELENI NODAROU

section the matrix is very fine and has a greenishbrown color due to the high firing temperature and the calcium content. The nonplastic inclusions consist primarily of coarse fragments of phyllite ranging in color from silvery gray to very dark brown, almost black, the latter being the most common. Some fragments are very fine grained, while others contain a small amount of quartz, occasionally grading into metamorphosed siltstone. The other nonplastic components include quartz, quartzite, and sandstone. There are also a few fossils. Fabric Group 8 is encountered solely at Petras. There is a coarser variant used for medium-sized transport and storage vessels and a finer one used mainly for cups (Day 1995, 163 [samples Petras 88/4, 88/20]; Tsipopoulou 1995b, 31). The vessels represented in the samples of this group are a pithos and an amphora of LM I date.

Other Coarse Fabrics Fabric Group 9: Granitic Dioritic Subgroup 9a samples: PET 03/4, 03/93, 03/94, 03/125, 03/128, 03/136–03/139 Subgroup 9b samples: PET 03/92, 03/114

The granitic-dioritic Fabric Group 9, represented by two subgroups at Petras, comprises one of the best known and most frequently occurring pottery fabrics in East Crete. It has been identified and described macroscopically and microscopically at many locations (for bibliography, see Betancourt 2008; Nodarou and Moody 2014). Its provenance is associated with the granitic-dioritic intrusions within the Cretaceous limestones of the central and western Mirabello Bay. Pottery in graniticdioritic fabrics is encountered in the area of the Mirabello and across northeast and southeast Crete beginning in the Final Neolithic period. At Petras it is encountered at least as early as EM III–MM IA in the assemblage from House Tomb 2 of the cemetery (Nodarou 2017, 135–137) and later in the survey material with comparatives from Stavros and Achladia (Day 1995, 159–161). Other Neopalatial and Postpalatial assemblages with imports from the Mirabello area include Pseira (Myer, McIntosh, and

Betancourt 1995), Mochlos (Day, Joyner, and Relaki 2003; Nodarou 2010), and Zakros (Nodarou, pers. obv.) on the north, and Bramiana (Nodarou 2021) and Myrtos Pyrgos (C. Knappett, pers. comm., October 2015) on the south coast. Subgroup 9a (Pl. 37B) is characterized by angular granitic-dioritic rock fragments that were added as temper in a very fine reddish-brown firing and optically inactive base clay. The secondary nonplastic components are plagioclase feldspar and biotite fragments, along with significant amounts of clay pellets that occur regularly in all samples. This is the most common recipe for transport and storage vessels. The vessels represented in this subgroup are all closed shapes such as jugs, amphorae, and pithoid jars, most of them with painted decoration. The fabric of Subgroup 9b (Pl. 38A) is characterized by the same acidic igneous rock fragments, but it has certain textural and compositional differences. In terms of texture, the average grain size is smaller, and the nonplastic inclusions are more densely packed in the clay matrix. In terms of composition, this fabric contains mainly fragments of granite (with feldspar being the predominant component) instead of the diorite present in Subgroup 9a, and it lacks the well-rounded clay pellets. This is the recipe for cooking wares, and the samples of this subgroup are tripod cooking vessels. Both subgroups date to the MM IIA period. It seems, therefore, that the import of pottery from the area of the northern part of the Isthmus of Ierapetra, which started at least in the EM III period, continued into the Protopalatial and comprised a broad array of vessels for cooking, serving, and transportation.

Fabric Group 10: Serpentinite Tempered Samples: PET 03/26, 03/28

Fabric Group 10 is a coarse to semi-coarse fabric which, although not very common in the East Cretan assemblages, is easily identified through macroscopic observation and in thin section (Pl. 38B). In hand specimen it is characterized by a buff clay and medium- to small-sized angular inclusions of a dark reddish-brown color, occasionally turning greenish or gray due to a high firing temperature. Under the microscope the matrix has a greenish-brown color

PETROGRAPHIC ANALYSIS OF CERAMIC MATERIAL FROM HOUSE I.1

due to the high firing and the calcium content, and it is optically inactive. The main nonplastic component is the angular and evenly distributed fragments of serpentinite, which range in color from greenish to bright orange. The size, angularity, and distribution of the serpentinite in the base clay leave no doubt that it was added deliberately to the clay paste as temper. There are no other inclusions except for a few microfossils indicative of a raw material connected with fossiliferous marl deposits. The origin of this fabric can be securely assigned to the south coast and more specifically to the broader area of Makrygialos. Serpentinite occurs in the ophiolite series and the flysch mélange of the south coast, and this fabric is encountered in significant quantities in the assemblage from the Neopalatial villa of Makrygialos (Nodarou 2007, forthcoming a). It is used exclusively for transport jars and pithoi.

137

are also a few fragments of quartz and rare sandstone, phyllite, quartzite, micritic limestone, and very rare green altered rock fragments. The elongate shape of the voids indicates tempering with organic matter. This practice is more common in the Prepalatial period, but it persists also in later periods solely in mudbricks and large domestic vessels. The size, angularity, and bimodal distribution of the calcite indicate that it was added as temper in the clay mix. Although rare in frequency, the presence of fine-grained brown phyllite and the green altered stone links this group with the metamorphic series of the broader area of Siteia. It seems, therefore, that this fabric represents an East Cretan product, although its origin cannot be assigned more precisely. All samples analyzed belong to basins of Middle Minoan I–IIA date.

Fabric Group 11: Calcite Tempered

Small Fabric Group with Metamorphics and Clay Pellets

Samples: PET 03/88, 03/89, 03/91

Samples: PET 03/6, 03/96

Fabric Group 11 is well known from the Prepalatial period (Pl. 39A). It appears at the end of the Final Neolithic and was used extensively in the earlier Prepalatial period. At Petras it is encountered in the EM IA assemblage of the settlement on the hill of Kephala and in the EM IB material from the burial rock shelter on the same hill (for the use of this fabric in the Prepalatial assemblages of Petras and for comparatives, see Nodarou 2012). Its use in the later Prepalatial/early Protopalatial period is limited to coarse domestic wares, which is the case also for the few samples from House I.1. Due to its use in large vessels the MM variant of the calcite-tempered fabric is coarser, with larger and more abundant fragments of calcite than its Prepalatial counterpart. It is easily recognized macroscopically by the reddish-brown base clay containing white angular inclusions. Because it is used in thick-walled coarse vessels oxidation is restricted to the interior and exterior surface, thus producing a “sandwich” section with red margins and black core. In thin section the matrix ranges from reddish brown to brown and from optically moderately active to inactive. The predominant nonplastic component is the coarse fragments of monocrystalline calcite evenly distributed in the clay matrix. There

Two of the samples analyzed represent a coarser (PET 03/96) and a finer version (PET 03/6) of the same fabric (Pl. 39B). The matrix ranges from orange-brown and optically active for the former to dark brown and optically inactive for the latter. The nonplastic inclusions consist of low grade metamorphic rock fragments, namely gray and brown fine-grained phyllite, a little mica-schist, quartzite, some quartz, and fragments of micritic limestone. The most characteristic component, though, is the regular presence of dark red rounded clay pellets not found in the metamorphic fabrics of East Crete. The two vessels are a decorated jug and an amphora of LM III date. The mineralogical composition and the clay pellets point toward a connection with the terra rossa deposits of the Malia plain and the red Maliot fabric (Poursat and Knappett 2005, 17–19).

Fine Fabrics The fine wares from House I.1 were sampled very selectively. The stylistic and macroscopic study showed that the majority of the Neopalatial fine

138

ELENI NODAROU

wares were produced at Palaikastro (see also Tsipopoulou and Dierckx 2006, 302). The products of the Palaikastro workshop(s) are easily identified through macroscopic observation due to the pinkish color of the surface slip, the dark reddish-brown fabric occasionally displaying a dark core, and the high firing. Among the other fine vessels sampled we chose to present only those connected to other assemblages analyzed from Petras, mainly the Prepalatial vessels from Kephala and the rock shelter, as well as a few that have parallels in other sites of East Crete.

Fabric Group 12: Fine Red, Quartz Rich Samples: PET 03/3, 03/5, 03/9, 03/12

Fabric Group 12 is a Palaikastro fabric (Pl. 40A). It is a fine fabric characterized by a dark red and optically inactive matrix with the core being slightly darker than the margins. There are frequent inclusions of quartz and a few fragments of elongate phyllite and micritic limestone. The color and texture of the matrix and the nature of the inclusions, especially the metamorphics, indicate that this is the fine variant of Fabric Group 3 originating from Palaikastro. This fabric is also encountered in the Neopalatial assemblages of Stavros and Achladia (Day 1995, 161–162), Papadiokampos (Nodarou, pers. obv.), and LM III Mochlos (Nodarou 2010, 11). The shapes represented among the Petras samples are all LM III closed vessels with painted decoration.

Fabric Group 13: Very Fine Calcareous

Due to the fineness of the fabric the mineralogical composition is not diagnostic of origin, but there is a secondary component of the base clay deserving special attention. Although present only in some samples, there is a bright red mineral (probably clay pellet or serpentinite) that is easily identified in thin section. A parallel for this fabric, used also in Vasiliki Ware vessels, is described in the material from the Kavousi survey and the EM IIB settlement at Myrtos Phournou Koriphi on the south coast, as well as at Mochlos on the north coast of East Crete (Day et al. 2005, 191–193, descriptions 7–9). The northern part of the isthmus of Ierapetra has been suggested as a possible place of origin (Day et al. 2005, 192). One might ask, therefore, if this Fabric Group 13 represents a recipe for Vasiliki Ware vessels, and more importantly, if it is an indication of a single center of production for this characteristic type of pottery. There are, however, two arguments against this association of fabric, ware, and center of production. First, the bright red mineral is not present in all Vasiliki Ware samples, whereas the dark brown clay pellets are regularly occurring. Second, recent analyses have shown that this bright red mineral is encountered also in fabrics from other areas and periods, for example, in the main fabric of the Early Geometric/Early Orientalizing assemblage from the cemetery at Kavousi Vronda. It is not found in the contemporary assemblages of Chalasmenos and Kephala Vasilikis (Nodarou, pers. obv.), although it appears in limited quantity at the LM IB site of Papadiokampos (Nodarou, pers. obv.). The possibility of an origin in the isthmus of Ierapetra cannot be excluded, but other options such as a northeastern origin should also be considered.

Samples: PET 03/105, 03/115–03/117

Fabric Group 13 is very fine with rare nonplastic inclusions (Pl. 40B). It is characterized by a brownfiring calcareous matrix containing small quartz fragments, biotite mica, and very rare coarse nonplastic inclusions of monocrystalline quartz and sandstone. Frequent clay pellets in a dark brown color and with a rather compact texture constitute the most characteristic component of this fabric. The shapes represented are two goblets and a spouted jar in the Vasiliki Ware tradition, along with a cup with red slip on the exterior.

Fabric Group 14: Very Fine Calcareous with Metamorphic Rock Fragments and Carbonates Samples: PET 03/104, 03/106, 03/107, 03/110, 03/111

Fabric Group 14 is characterized by a fine dark gray to dark brown firing matrix that is optically inactive (Pl. 41A). There are few to very rare nonplastic inclusions consisting of small quartz, metamorphic rock fragments (mainly phyllite and little quartzite), and occasionally some carbonates (micritic limestone). There are also a few dark brown

139

to black clay pellets. This fine calcareous fabric is well known at Petras: it appears in EM IB in the rock shelter and seems to represent a new manufacturing tradition used exclusively for Dark Gray Burnished vessels (Nodarou 2012, 85). All the vessels belonging to this small group are from Prepalatial contexts. They belong to the Dark Gray Burnished Ware, which seems to be present also in the area of House I.1. Three of the four samples belong to bowls of EM I date, except for PET 03/107, which is a closed vessel.

features (clay pellets). Although they do not provide any indication of the origin of the pottery, their regular presence is characteristic of the way the clay is prepared. This fabric has been encountered also at LM III Mochlos (Nodarou 2010, 12, Fabric 11) and at the farmhouse of Chrysokamino (Nodarou 2007, 80). Whether it is an import or an East Cretan product, it is petrographically distinct and seems to have been used for fine painted wares. The vessel represented here is a LM I jug with a painted band around the base.

Fabric Group 15: Fine Red with Clay Pellets and Striations

Pottery Consumption in House I.1

Samples: PET 03/119, 03/126

Fabric Group 15 comprises two samples of a fine red fabric with clay pellets and striations (Pl. 41B). It is characterized by a dark reddish-brown firing matrix that is optically inactive. There are very few nonplastic inclusions, which consist of small fragments of quartz and metamorphic rocks, mainly phyllite. There are also rare fossils. The most characteristic feature of this fabric is the frequent textural concentration features in the form of dark red clay pellets and clay striations indicating incomplete clay mixing. Although these clay features cannot be used for provenance assignment, they are indicative of a standardized way of clay manipulation; for this reason they are recorded for comparative use in future analyses. The vessels represented are a conical cup with white-on-dark decoration and a cup with splash decoration. The date for these vessels is MM IIA. A similar fabric has been encountered at LM III Mochlos (Nodarou 2010, 12, fabric 12).

Loner: Fine Red with Clay Pellets Sample: PET 03/66

This very fine fabric is characterized by a brown firing and optically inactive matrix (Pl. 42). The rare nonplastics consist of a few small fragments of quartz and very rare fine-grained sandstone. The main component is the frequent subrounded dark reddish-brown textural concentration

The petrographic analysis of selected samples from House I.1 at Petras identified an array of fabrics used for pottery manufacture, some persisting over a long timespan, others characteristic of the main period of occupation in the Neopalatial. Pottery consumption in House I.1 was predominantly centered upon local pottery, with the term “local” being defined to include the entire area of the bay of Siteia and the valley of Achladia. As indicated by the small-scale clay sampling, the raw materials used for pottery manufacture are connected with the marl outcrops in the valley of Achladia (Fabric Group 1) and the red alluvial deposits in the area between Petras and Roussa Ekklisia (Fabric Group 2), both having a component from the locally occurring weathered products of the Phyllite-Quartzite series. The two fabric groups represent distinct recipes and different productions: the former is used for decorated small- and medium-sized vessels connected with transportation and the serving and consumption of liquids, whereas the latter is used for plain domestic vessels such as jars and cooking wares. It cannot be concluded with certainty whether this differentiation reflects distinct production within the same workshop(s) or whether there were small workshops distributed sparsely in the area of Siteia exploiting different sources of raw materials and specializing in specific wares. In the discussion of broadly local production there is a single fabric that might represent local production in a more limited sense. The so-called

140

ELENI NODAROU

Petras fabric (Fabric Group 8) is rather distinctive macroscopically and microscopically with its white clay and dark inclusions. It was used for a small range of vessels (cups and medium-sized jars), and until the present it has not been encountered in any other site. The base clay, a white calcareous marl widely present in the Petras area, was tempered with phyllite, which is also available locally in the Phyllite-Quartzite series of the area. Its narrow distribution links it with the immediate vicinity of Petras, but the determination of its exact place of origin is a problem that requires further sampling. The occupants of House I.1 consumed pottery not only from production centers in the vicinity of Petras but also from distant areas in Central and East Crete and even from off-island sources. The sampling was rather selective, and the amount of imported material sampled is representative of the nature of the imports, not necessarily of their quantity in the assemblage. What became obvious from the stylistic and petrographic studies is that the majority of the imports originate from Palaikastro (Fabric Groups 3 and 12) and include jars, amphorae, fine drinking and serving vessels, and fewer cooking wares. This is not surprising, since the Palaikastro workshop(s) flourished in the Neopalatial period, exporting ceramic products to many places in East Crete such as Papadiokampos, Mochlos, and even Bramiana on the south coast. Fewer in number but also deriving from the far eastern part of the island are the decorated closed vessels in a metamorphic fabric with dark siltstones (Fabric Group 6) originating from Zakros. Production center(s) of the south coast are represented at House I.1 only by the serpentinitetempered fabric (Fabric Group 10) used exclusively for transport amphorae; its origin can be securely assigned to the area of Makrygialos. The fabrics with greenstone and mica-schist (Fab­ric Groups 4 and 5, respectively) originate from the area of Mochlos-Chamaizi as shown by the clay sampling. The former group includes exclusively transport vessels, also encountered at Papadiokampos, whereas the latter comprises transport and cooking vessels. A sample connected with Malia indicates contacts with important centers of the north central coast, while an amphora in a highly micaceous fabric

(Fabric Group 5, loner) reflects contacts with areas outside Crete. The diversity of the main fabrics characterizing the Neopalatial ceramic assemblage from House I.1 indicates that the occupants of the building consumed pottery from several production centers, some of which are strictly local (Fabric Groups 2 and 8), others from the broader Siteia area, namely Achladia (Fabric Group 1), and others from East Cretan areas, namely Palaikastro (Fabric Groups 3 and 12). Thus, the Neopalatial House I.1 reflects the ability of the harbor town of Petras to act as a hub for communication, taking advantage of the inland routes between the Siteia hinterland (Achladia) and the north coast, as well as the northern coastal routes connecting the harbors of the far east (Palaikastro and Zakros) with important centers to the west (Mochlos, Gournia, and even Malia).

A Diachronic Perspective on Pottery Fabrics at Petras The petrographic analysis of the pottery from House I.1 constitutes part of a larger program of analysis investigating pottery production and consumption in the area of Siteia. Petras is the key site in this research because of its central location and diachronic importance throughout the Bronze Age. Some observations are presented here concerning the analysis of pottery that does not belong to the Neopalatial period, the main phase of occupation of House I.1, but relates chronologically to other contexts at Petras analyzed previously. Most of the pottery that has been analyzed so far comes from Prepalatial and early Protopalatial contexts, and the data available from House I.1 also cover the later Prepalatial and the Protopalatial period. The analysis of pottery samples from the FN/ EM IA settlement and the EM IB–MM I burial rock shelter on the hill of Kephala Petras indicates the predominance of two tempering traditions, one with grog and the other with calcite added to a red noncalcareous base clay. The emergence in EM IB of a new clay paste using calcareous raw materials for the production of fine decorated vessels

PETROGRAPHIC ANALYSIS OF CERAMIC MATERIAL FROM HOUSE I.1

is also evident (Nodarou 2012, 85; Papadatos and Nodarou 2018, 291). This technological tradition in the manufacture of the fine wares continues in the MM I–MM II period, as seen in the material from House Tomb 2 and Ceremonial Area A at the cemetery of Petras. The pottery from House I.1 provides corroborating evidence for a very fine calcareous fabric with metamorphic rocks and carbonates (Fabric Group 14), which was used for the manufacture of Dark Gray Burnished vessels of the EM IB period. House I.1 also provides evidence for another shift in pottery production at Petras. The analysis of the assemblage from House Tomb 2 and Ceremonial Area 1 showed a major change in the late Prepalatial–early Protopalatial period in the technology of coarse ware manufacture, which came to be characterized by the use of raw materials connected with the Phyllite-Quartzite series in a number of clay pastes (Nodarou 2017, 132–134). This change is further attested by the finds from House I.1, with the majority of the metamorphic fabrics encountered in the Neopalatial period having been present also in the Protopalatial. The material from House I.1 also supports the proposition that the FN/EM I calcite-tempering tradition stopped being used for tablewares and transport containers at the end of EM IIA. It continued to be used only for domestic coarse wares until the Protopalatial period (Fabric Group 11). The last observation concerns imports to Petras from other areas of Crete. The evidence from House I.1 expands our prior knowledge about contacts with the area of Gournia-Kalo Chorio in the late Prepalatial–Protopalatial period. The late Prepalatial (EM III–MM IA) granitic-dioritic material from House Tomb 2 comprises only closed vessels (Nodarou 2017, 135–136). At House I.1 there is a new component of this fabric (Fabric Group 9) with two variants, one for decorated serving and drinking vessels and another for cooking wares, all dating to the MM IIA phase. This indicates that there was a continuity in the contacts between Petras and the northern part of the Isthmus of Ierapetra, and as indicated by the survey material those contacts extended also into the Neopalatial period (Day 1995, 159–160). Furthermore, at House I.1 there is evidence for the emergence of other intraregional contacts (imports from Zakros (Fabric Group 6),

141

Palaikastro (Fabric Groups 3 and 12), and possibly the broader area of Mochlos-Chamaizi (Fabric Groups 4 and 5) also began to appear in the Protopalatial period. The evidence from House I.1 indicates common patterns for the production and consumption of pottery between the various contexts and assemblages at Petras throughout the history of the site.

Petrographic Descriptions of the Main Fabric Groups The petrographic analysis was carried out using a Leica DMLP polarizing microscope. The descriptions follow the system introduced by Whitbread (1995). The following abbreviations are used: a (angular), c:f:v (coarse:fine:voids), r (rounded), sa (subangular), sr (subrounded), l.d. (long dimension), TCFs (textural concentration features), PPL (plane-polarized light), XP (cross-polarized light). Frequency labels are defined as follows: predominant (>70%), dominant (50%–70%), frequent (30%–50%), common (15%–30%), few (5%–15%), very few (2%–5%), rare (0.5%–2.0%), very rare (3,695 (>54.36 kg)
