LEFKANDI-XEROPOLIS 2006 SEASON

Region I

In Region I the focus of the excavation was in Area M and especially in the area around the substantial wall found in 2004.

'Megaron' excavated in 2006

'Megaron' from the South

By the end of the season it had been shown that the substantial wall found in 2004 belongs to a Protogeometric / Sub- Protogeometric ‘Megaron’, resembling in construction – though not in its scale – the monumental building at Toumba.

Area P was further investigated; it is located south-west of the Late Geometric House excavated by Popham and Sackett in the 1960s. Area P produced a complex sequence of layers covering all stages of the Late Helladic IIIC, Sub-Mycenaean, and Protogeometric periods, offering evidence of continuity in the occupation of this area through the transition periods from the Late Bronze to the Early Iron Age.
