Excavations at Sissi V

Description

This volume
This volume, in two parts, is the fifth and last preliminary report on the
excavations conducted at the Bronze Age site of Kephali tou Agiou Antoniou at
Sissi in the nomos of Lasithi, Crete. It covers the campaigns during the
summers of 2017, 2018 and 2019 with quite detailed reports on the different
areas excavated, including the cemetery, the residential structures and the
Court-Centred Building. We also report on the tests conducted and the three
survey campaigns in the east part of the Sissi basin, with additional
attention to the ammouda quarry and WW II remains. The volume also includes a
series of scientific analyses that have been made on some of the material
(ceramics, seals, gold, plaster, coins) and a brief presentation of the
consolidation efforts that have been done on the remains discovered thus far.
Since the study of the architecture, stratigraphy and finds is still on-going,
all results should be considered as provisional. The final excavation reports
that are in progress may modify some of the opinions expressed in this volume
or the previous ones.
