The Ayia Triada Necropolis in the EM III-MM I and the Connections with Neighbouring Areas
This research project delves into the exploration and publication of archaeological discoveries unearthed within the Camerette area of the Late Prepalatial and Early Protopalatial necropolis in Ayia Triada (2300/2200 to 1925/1900 BC, the Early Minoan III to Middle Minoan I). This necropolis characterized by the remains of tholos A, a circular tomb accompanied by annexes, alongside the so-called Camerette, a series of interconnected chambers with debated function. Through the typological and comparative analysis of pottery, I aimed to elucidate the activities conducted within the necropolis, particularly in relation to ritualistic practices, and to delineate the socio-cultural interactions between Ayia Triada and its surrounding environs. Furthermore, the examination seeks to ascertain the socio-economic fabric of the community associated with this necropolis, positing it as a focal point for communal gatherings and the cultivation of group identity. To achieve these objectives, the findings are contextualized within the broader Cretan archaeological landscape, facilitating a comprehensive historical synthesis that elucidates the significance of Ayia Triada within the wider Minoan archaeology.
