Summary
Before we can proceed to sum up generally the results of our examination of the prehistoric remains of North-Eastern Greece, we must briefly review the prehistoric discoveries made to the south of Lake Kopais, which, as said above, forms, as far as our present knowledge extends, the southern limit of the North Greek area.
Boeotia, Phocis, etc. At Thebes on the Cadmea remains of extensive prehistoric occupation have been brought to light, and tholos and chamber tombs have been found near the town. The pottery and other objects found fall within the second and third Late Minoan periods, to the latter of which the bulk of the finds from the Cadmea belong. At Ayios Theodhoros (ιΑγιος Θεόδωρος), near Anticyra, and elsewhere on the littoral of the Corinthian gulf tombs of the L.M. III period have been found.
Attica. On the Acropolis at Athens some monochrome and incised sherds were found; amongst them was one grey sherd, which is perhaps Minyan. The incised fragments recall those from Aphidna. The other prehistoric sherds are L.M. II or III. On the slope of the Acropolis by the Odeion of Herodes Atticus a tomb of unbaked brick was discovered with upper and lower interments. With the bones were eleven obsidian arrow heads of the hafted type, and several sherds of Minyan ware: a small jug of rough hand-made ware was found near by.
