This article considers the interpretation of the Mycenaean terms se-re-mo-ka-ra-a-pi (Plural) and se-re-mo-ka-ra-o-re (Singular) that belong to the technical descriptive vocabulary of elaborate chairs (termed to-no /thornoi/) in the Linear B tablets of the Ta series from the palace complex of Pylos (c. 1200 BCE). The interpretation of the term as a compound of *se-re-mo- and -ka-ra is discussed.

Alice E.

But more than 70 years after her untimely death, no one has ever been able to describe exactly how she made her

This paper focuses on the possibilities inherent in a multi-scalar approach to the investigation of an inscribed picrolite plaque from Erimi (Cyprus), currently kept at the Iosephides collection. Results of macro- and micro-analyses allow for a preliminary interpretation of this unparalleled object in its background. A combination of different analytical data is discussed, including the morphological features and characteristics of
