In the spring of 1993, two Mycenaean (14th-12th centuries BC)
chamber tombs were discovered by accident at Pylona, not far from
Lindos on the southern coast of Rhodes. Excavations uncovered a
cemetery site of six tombs and a series of remarkable finds: human
remains, pottery, bronze objects, and jewellery. The excavation
reports are published here with a complete catalogue of finds,
including the extensive and especially fine pottery discoveries.
Chapter six is a detailed illustrated study by P. J. P. McGeorge of
the skeletal remains from the tombs, presented as a catalogue of
finds and a concluding summary on the general health, living
conditions, and customs of the community. The work also includes a
further three specialist appendices: an ICP-AES analysis of some of
the Pylona vessels (M.J. Ponting and the author); a review of the
textile remains (D. de Wild); and chemical analyses of glass beads
and the copper sword find (H. Mangou).
