Mochlos Ib Period Iii. Neopalatial Settlement on the Coast The Artisans' Quarter and the Farmhouse at Chalinomouri, the Neopalatial Pottery

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 directed by Jeffrey Soles and Costis Davaras in the Neopalatial levels of the Artisans' Quarter and at 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. Volume IA publishes the process of excavation and the architecture, volume IB presents the pottery, and volume IC will publish the small finds.Barnard, Kellee A. is the author of 'Mochlos Ib Period Iii.
