Preliminary Report of 2004
The main focus of the second season was in Region I which was investigated
in 2003. Excavation in this region took place on the East-West axis and
to the north between the East and West Sectors of the 2003 excavation.
It comprises Areas K, L and M and covers 12 grid squares. Immediately
adjoining these areas to the west, work was continued in Area H of 2003:
a further 5 squares were involved. Finally in two Areas (N and P: another
2 squares), a return was made to the original excavations of Mervyn Popham
and Hugh Sackett. The reason was to define better the northern limits
of the Late Geometric II apsidal building and understand better its plan.
Area P is an area to the south-west that had been left untouched then
and which produced interesting results. Region II is located some 150
m to the west. A series of individual trenches (4 sampled) was investigated
here. In all, the second season comprised a score of 500 m squares dug:
a figure comparable to the achievements of 2003.
