Klissoura Cave 1 is located in the northeastern edge of the Argive Plain, Peloponnese, at the entrance of the Berbadiotis river gorge. The cave comprises a collapsed cave chamber and a rockshelter area. The stratigraphic analysis and micromorphological study of the sediments elucidated the main processes involved in the formation of the site and its depositional history.
The excavation at Klissoura was planned in 1992, as a joint-project between the Ephoreia of Palaeoanthropology and Speleology of the Ministry of Culture of Greece and the Institute of Archaeology of the Jagiellonian University of Krakow, Poland. Our primary goal was to investigate the circumstances under which the neolithisation of NW Peloponnese came about.
The Lofkënd burial tumulus in the Mallakaster region of Albania was jointly excavated by a team from the Cotsen Institute of Archaeology (CIOA) at UCLA and the Albanian Institute of Archaeology in Tiranë over four seasons (2004-2007), with a fifth season (2008) devoted to study.
Αn autopsy of several Pylian Linear B tablets at the Prehistoric Collection of the National Archaeological Museum at Athens undertaken by the author in April and July 2008 resulted — inter alia — in the identification of a quasi-join between PY Fr 343+1213 and Fr 1209.
Ènoto che -qo-ro corrisponde a –πολος dalla radice indoeuropea *q*ol- che présenta l’apofonia qualitativa di *qwel-, cfr. πέλομαι (v. DELG, s. v.). Ι composti nominali in - πολος sono molto numerosi. Il problema è stato analizzato da vari studiosi.

La publication de la fouille de Kavkania et de l’inscription en linéaire B qu’elle a livrée a suscité une mauvaise querelle alimentée par un pseudo-mycénologue qui eût été mieux inspiré en publiant les actes d’un colloque qu’il avait organisé en 2000 à Austin (Texas) -et qui ne verront jamais le jour- ou encore en menant à terme la publication du corpus des inscriptions en linéaire B de Pylos qu’il s’était engagé à réaliser.

During the 1952 excavation season at Ano Englianos, sixteen fragmentary Linear B tablets were found in the Megaron of the Palace of Nestor. These tablets were found throughout the red mudbrick destruction layer in the Megaron, leading Blegen and Rawson to conclude that the tablets had fallen from an upper story above the Megaron.
Prosopography has long played an important role in Mycenology. Because personal names account for a large proportion of the words found in the Linear B tablets, the activities of the individuals bearing those names can he studied in order to ascertain information about the members of Mycenaean society who populate the bureaucratic records.
L’industrie textile mycénienne est connue en grande partie grâce aux tablettes en linéaire B de Cnossos et de Pylos, et une série d’études fondamentales ont permis de comprendre de façon approfondie ce secteur de l’économie palatiale. Mycènes, Tirynthe et Thèbes, en revanche, n’ont livré que peu de tablettes à ce propos et ne servent souvent que comme points de comparaison sur des sujets très spécialisés.
In another study I have examined some features of the languages written in the three most important Cypro-Minoan (= CM) writing systems, CM 1, 2 and 3.
The article focuses on the clay tablet No 1885 that was found in 1955 by P. Dikaios in Enkomi (Cyprus). The tablet is written in one of the Cypro-Minoan scripts.
Η λευκότητα και η απαλή υφή του ελεφαντόδοντου αλλά και η δυσκολία ανεύρεσης του τύπου το καθιστά πολύτιμο, πρέπει να ήταν οι παράγοντες που οδήγησαν από νωρίς στη χρήση του για την κατασκευή πολυτελών αντικειμένων από τους τεχνίτες του Αιγαίου.
In the heart of Aetolia, a wide mountain plain stretches out at the northeast of Lake Trichonis. At its eastern edge, on the verge of the Megalakkos height lies the site of Thermos. Thermos is known in history as a religious and political centre of the Aetolian League, an outcome of processes going back centuries.
