Περίληψη (στα Αγγλικά)

In 1985, during stratigraphical soundings carried out by V. La Rosa in the north sec­tor of the Haghia Triada settlement, remains of a house destroyed by fire at the beginning of LM IA were brought to light under the floor of room C of the LM III A monumental Edificio Ovest. The best preserved sector of the LM IA house was a small rectangular room named C/2, partially covered by the later structures and 1.65 m in width on its east-west axis in its better preserved southern part. In its southeast corner, 21 vases and 8 stone tools were found around and upon a large high slab (0.30 x 0.25 m) placed on the floor, while the deep destruc­tion layer of the house also yielded four loom weights and fragments of two potter’s wheels.

Since the discovery, some of the vases from room C/2 appeared to be of clear ritual desti­nation on account of their typological features and dimensions. The most obvious ritual tool was the tripod tray HTR 1060, after which the house was named Casa del Vassoio Tripodato.
