Mochlos
is a Minoan town set on a fine harbor at the eastern side
of the Gulf of Mirabello, in northeast Crete. It was first
inhabited during the Neolithic period, and it had an important
Minoan settlement during most of the Bronze Age. Mochlos
I, to be published in three volumes, presents the results
of the excavations in the Neopalatial levels of the Artisans'
Quarter and the farmhouse at Chalinomouri. The Artisans'
Quarter consisted of a series of workshops with evidence
for pottery manufacture, metalworking, and weaving. Chalinomouri,
a semi-independent farmhouse with strong connections to
the nearby island settlement at Mochlos, was engaged in
craftwork and food processing as well as agriculture.
This volume, Mochlos IC, presents the small finds from
the site.
