This volume brings together a number of papers that were presented at the international symposium on Pots, Workshops and Early Iron Age Society.

Um die Mitte des 9. Jhs. v. Chr. bringen die Töpfer und Vasenmaler auf Kreta einen eigenwilligen geometrischen Keramikstil hervor, dessen Hauptmerkmale kurvolineare Ornamente und erste figürliche Darstellungen nach dem Ende der bronzezeitlichen minoischen Kultur sind. Besonders die Ornamente - Schlaufenlinien, Spiralen und Flechtbänder - sind in der Forschung häufig auf nahöstlichen Einfluss zurückgeführt worden.
The volume presents the study of the material associated with textile manufacture, deriving from the Neolithic and Minoan levels of Phaistos and Ayia Triada.

Within archaeological studies, land tenure has been mainly studied from the viewpoint of ownership. A host of studies has argued about land ownership on the basis of the simple co-existence of artefacts on the landscape; other studies have tended to extrapolate land ownership from more indirect means.
The present book is the result of two different excavations. The fist excavation was carried out by the Italian archaeologist Federico Halbherr in the region of Hagia Triada, which has been called “Villaggio”. The second one has been undertaken by the author one century later (2010-2015).
Thanks to the biography by Joan Evans, sister of Arthur Evans, the research of John J. Wilkes and the new biography by Silvia L. Horwitz, we know much about Arthur Evans’s work in the Balkans prior to his discoveries on Crete.

The main scope of this book is to demonstrate the extent of the Cypriote influence on Crete during the Iron Age, both with regard to the import of goods, especially pottery and also the degree of influence which Cypriote objects, again mainly pottery, exercised on Cretan artistic production.
