The plan revealed a square chamber (1.80m by 1.80m), entered by a sloping dromos (0.90m wide and preserved to a length of 2.5m) from the northeast. ; The reason for the scantiness of the remains and the incomplete condition of the skeletons is however, to be explained by an earlier disturbance. Apparently much of the tomb had been cut away by workmen who were engaged in digging the foundations for a large monument in the 4th c. B.C. and once they had struck the skeletons reverence for the dead induced them to shift the monument westward by its own width.","6 May 1952","","Myc. III A 1:2 (14th c.)"

The bulk of the items are pottery, but stone, bone, and metal objects also occur. Selected material from the Neolithic and from the Early and Middle Helladic periods is catalogued by fabric and then shape and forms the basis of detailed discussions of the wares (by technique, shapes, and decoration), the stone and bone objects, and their relative and absolute chronology. The major part of the volume is devoted to the Mycenaean period, the bulk of it to the cemetery of forty-odd tombs and graves with detailed discussions of architectural forms; of funeral rites; of offerings of pottery, bronze, ivory, and jewelry; and of chronology. Pottery from wells, roads, and other deposits as well as individual vases without significant context, augment the pottery from tombs as the basis of a detailed analysis of Mycenaean pottery. A chapter on historical conclusions deals with all areas of Mycenaean Athens.","1971","",""
