Description for Mochlos IIB
Hardback. Num Pages: 320 pages, 40 tbls, 93 b/w figs, 35 b/w pls. BIC Classification: HDDA. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 284 x 224 x 25. Weight in Grams: 1474.
Excavations carried out at two Late Minoan III sites at Mochlos in eastern Crete yielded a pottery assemblage from 31 tombs and 11 houses, which are cataloged, discussed, and illustrated together with petrographic analyses. The cemetery remains mirror the settlement remains, and the conclusions discuss how the two sites reflect each other. Rarely in Crete are a settlement and its cemetery both preserved, and it is extremely fortunate to be able to document both in a series of scientific excavation reports (Mochlos vols. IIA-IIC).

Reviews for Mochlos IIB
This volume constitutes a remarkably interesting and indispensable source of information for those concerned with the modes of production, distribution and mainly consumption of ceramics...in LM II-IIIB Crete and especially in the increasingly less obscure and "wild" eastern Cretan region. It also offers an exemplary methodology for studying stratigraphically, chronologically and contextually well-defined assemblages of pottery.'
