New Discoveries at Knossos

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  08 January 2012

Extract

It might have been thought that after eight campaigns—extending back to 1900 and supplemented by minor investigations—the Palace site of Knossos would have been pretty well exhausted. The work indeed on my first volume about the House of Minos had brought out certain lacunas in the evidence which it was of the first importance to fill in, and the probings that it had been possible to carry out in the period immediately preceding the Great War led me to the conclusion that the site, if seriously attacked, might still be productive of archaeological surprises.

This clay, with its coppery grains, resembles that of the early pottery of Vasiliki and points to a neighbouring port on the north Coast as the place of fabric.Google Scholar
