No full textThe “House of Pithoi”: An early Middle Helladic (MH) household in the South Quarter of Argos (Argolid, Peloponnese)
No full textThis paper presents the final results from the systematic re-examination of a household assemblage, known as the “House of Pithoi” in the South Quarter of Argos, excavated by the late Prof. Francis Croissant in 1966, and dated to the Middle Helladic (MH) period. The purpose of the study is to (a) present the four distinct architectural phases, which cover the entire span from MH I to MH II early, (b) highlight the burials made, both during its period of occupation and shortly after its abandonment, (c) describe the early MH pottery in detail, and (d) discuss and contextualize the storage facilities of the House of Pithoi – dating from the beginning of the MH period. These, taken with other pieces of evidence including the wider socio-economic circumstances in the Argive plain, reveal a more dynamic situation than traditionally thought.Cet article présente les résultats du réexamen systématique d’un assemblage domestique mésohelladique du Quartier Sud d’Argos fouillé par Francis Croissant en 1966 et baptisé « Maison aux pithoi ». L’étude a pour but : a) d’établir la séquence architecturale du bâtiment, qui présente quatre états couvrant les phases de l’HM I et de l’HM II initial ; b) de mettre en lumière l’usage funéraire occasionnel de l’espace, aussi bien pendant son occupation que peu après son abandon ; c) de présenter en détail la céramique des premières phases de l’HM ; d) de s’interroger sur les pratiques de stockage dont témoigne la Maison aux pithoi, en les comparant avec les données d’autres sites et en les replaçant plus largement dans le contexte socio-économique de l’Argolide mésohelladique, qui s’avère être plus dynamique qu’on ne le pensait habituellement, et cela dès le début de la période.Στο άρθρο αυτό παρουσιάζονται τα αποτελέσµατα της συστηµατικής επανεξέτασης ενός οικιακού συνόλου στη Νότια Συνοικία του Άργους, γνωστού ως «η Οικία των Πίθων», η οποία ανασκάφθηκε το 1966 από το καθηγητή Francis Croissant και χρονολογείται στην Μεσοελλαδική (ME) εποχή. Στους στόχους της µελέτης εντάσσεται: (α) η διάκριση των επιµέρους αρχιτεκτονικών φάσεων, οι οποίες ανέρχονται σε τέσσερεις και καλύπτουν τη ME I και πρώιµη ME II φάση, (β) η ανάδειξη της ταφικής χρήσης του χώρου σε διάφορες φάσεις, τόσο σε σχέση µε την χρήση όσο και µε το άµεσο διάστηµα που ακολούθησε την εγκατάλειψή του, (γ) η λεπτοµερής συζήτηση της κεραµεικής των πρώιµων ΜΕ φάσεων, και (δ) η διαπραγµάτευση των αποθηκευτικών δυνατοτήτων της Οικίας των Πίθων σε συνάρτηση µε άλλα δεδοµένα και η ένταξη στο ευρύτερο οικονοµικο-κοινωνικό πλαίσιο στην Αργολική πεδιάδα, το οποίο εντέλει αποδεικνύεται περισσότερο δυναµικό από ό, τι παραδοσιακά πιστευόταν, ήδη από τις απαρχές της Μέσης Εποχής του Χαλκού
The Social Dynamics of Argos in a Constantly Changing Landscape (MH II-LH II)
No full textInternational audienceThe present paper focuses on the life cycle of Argos during the early Mycenaean period (MH III/LH I-LH II), also taking into consideration the back-history of the settlement from the beginning of the MH period. On the basis of new evidence from the Aspis MH settlement, and using the Adaptive Cycle model for Argos and for nearby settlements (Lerna, Mycenae), we propose the existence not only of varied life paths for the different sites, but also of important potentials in the MH period that led Argos to great prosperity during the MH II phase, completing a whole AC by the end of the MH period. During the transitional phase (MH III/LH I), and despite a rather illusory image of continuous growth, as reflected in new buildings in the fortified acropolis of the Aspis, Argos enters a critical phase that then becomes apparent through the abandonment of certain residential areas and the relocation of some population groups within and probably beyond its borders. According to one possible scenario, a group of people moved, at the very beginning of MH III, from the Aspis acropolis probably to Mycenae, thus participating in its spectacular rise from the late MH period and onwards. In LH I-ΙΙΑ Argos is still in a phase of reorganisation, marked by the definite abandonment of the acropolis and changes in the social and economic domains. Only in LH IIB does Argos enter a phase of substantial renewal, as reflected in both the burial/ideological and the residential spheres through the respective establishment of a new burial ground at the Deiras and the rapid expansion of the settlement in the Lower Town upon the vestiges of the old cemetery. However, the critical phase in the transition to the LH period and the restraint of Argos' dynamic course irreversibly transformed it from a leader and a prime agent of the plain (in MH) into a secondary political power throughout the Mycenaean period

19. Marathon in the Middle and Late Bronze Age: New Evidence from an Old Excavation
No full textIntroduction: Marathon in prehistory The strategic location of Marathon on the east coast of Attica, which enables control of a large part of the Euboean gulf and the opposite coastline, favored intensive human occupation throughout prehistory (Fig. 19.1). The earliest evidence, dated to the Early and Middle Neolithic, has been discovered at Nea Makri, immediately south of the Marathon plain and the marshes of Brexiza (Pantelidou Gofa 1991: 182; Banou 2010: 36-37). Late Neolithic habitation i..
