^{page 125 note 1} E.g. mottled, rippled and, rarely, white on black-polished. It is possible that decoration by means of punctured dots or incised wedges below the rim was taken over from a Neolithic usage.

^{page 125 note 2} A subdivision of Period A into an earlier and a later part, suggested at Vardaróftsa, is confirmed here by the cessation of certain types and the appearance of new about half-way through the deposit. But there is no cultural break, and, until the evidence is confirmed from other sites, it seems better to treat the Period as a whole. The division between the two phases is indicated on the diagrams on p. 146 by a dotted line.

^{page 149 note 3} Analysis of a bronze pin from H. Mámos.

The bronze was very much rusted, and all the copper had dissolved out from the inside. Thus the proportional percentage of copper was probably originally higher, and it is quite likely that originally there was not more than 3 or 4 per cent, of tin. It can thus be called a poor-tin bronze, and it is plain that even in Mycenaean times tin was economised for objects that did not matter. Compare the pure copper kettle from Mycenae analysed by Schliemann.

The above analysis was made by Mr. O. Davies, to whom Sir Charles Martin of the Lister Institute very kindly afforded the necessary facilities.

^{page 156 note 1} Wace, (B.S.A. xxi. 12–15)Google Scholar shews that the evidence in favour of the identification of Olynthus and Mekýverna was already very strong, and although the recent American excavations have failed to produce epigraphical evidence, the remains uncovered are conclusive (Robinson, in A.J.A. xxxiii. 74Google Scholar).

^{page 156 note 2} Struck, loc. cit., regards this mound as part of the site, but the absence of pottery on the surface renders this doubtful. After the excavation of the prehistoric site we began a series of trial trenches on its northern slope. No pottery was found in the surface level, but bad weather necessitated their abandonment before the natural gravel had been reached. The soil at a depth of 80 cm. appeared to be undisturbed, but the evidence was not conclusive.

^{page 157 note 1} The remains at the old mouth of the Sándanos River cannot be earlier than the Hellenic period (Struck, op. cit., 40: ‘Baureste aus Quadern auf—die möglicherweise von einer Hafenanlage herrühren’). It is possible that they belong to one of the Chalcidean towns, which Perdikkas persuaded their inhabitants to desert in favour of Olynthus (Thucydides, I. 58).

^{page 164 note 4} A similar ware was found at Hágios Mámas.

^{page 164 note 5} Of the plain variety shapes that can be inferred are goblets (like Fig. 37, 7) and cups with high handles. A typical Early Helladic (Early Macedonian) lug, vertically pierced (Fig. 40, 7), may belong to a water-jar or to a bowl with incurved rim as at Vardaróftsa (q.v. Pl. I, 3); of the grooved varieties (B 2 (a) and B 2 (b)), water-jars (like Fig. 49), high-handled cups, and goblets (but only with plain stems), occur in the lower level of the Period. About 10 per cent. of this ware seems to have been wheel-made.

^{page 165 note 1} This example shews the flattening of the sides of the handle, a characteristic of Early Macedonian handles.

^{page 165 note 2} Cf. the lugs on bowls of ‘Villanova’ forms at Hágios Mámas (Fig. 22, 9), and Vardaróftsa (q.v. Pl. XII (b), 2).

^{page 166 note 1} Cf. Note 2 below.

^{page 166 note 2} This example has a special interest. Rounded lumps on the inside shew that it was made on a core. The base is scored to receive a stem. To judge from its stratified position it is contemporary with the finished wheel-made goblets.

^{page 167 note 1} The construction of these goblets is interesting. In most cases cup and stem are made separately; the top of the stem (and sometimes the base of the cup) are scored and the two are stamped together (Fig. 40, 1–3, 5). In order to hide (and perhaps to strengthen) the join, a layer of clay was spread over it and carried up the sides of the cup, which were also scored to receive it (Fig. 47, 1). It is possible that the grooves were intended to hide the join and were extended to the whole of the stem.

Another method, less frequently used, was to make the stem as a hollow cylinder and then fit the cup into it. This technique resembles that of some of the gold cups from Mycenae (cf. Stais, , Collection Mycénienne, 427Google Scholar, 351: cf. also Montelius, La Grèce préclassique, Pl. 29, 6: a silver cup from Knossos).

Yet another method, very rarely used, was to attach the walls of the cup to the stem, the top of the stem thus forming the bottom of the cup (Fig. 38, 6). Fig. 47 illustrates the three methods.

On similar principles the handles of cups and goblets were affixed. The wall of the cup was scored to receive the end of the handle (Fig. 40, 6); clay was then plastered over the join. This accounts for the thickening often visible at this point (Fig. 39, 7).

^{page 181 note 2} It looks, in fact, as if the merchants of Troy II were supplementing their local mineral resources from Chalcidice. The cupel (Fig. 51, 9), though of a later date, is significant of what these minerals in Chalcidice were, i.e. silver and lead. A recent report on minerals in Macedonia by a Government inspector of mines says of Chalcidice: ‘Dans cette péninsule se trouve l'or dans filons quartzeux avec mispickel,’ and quotes Kassandra as one of such places. A Consular Report on Macedonian mines says: ‘East of Olynthus are some veins of tin, and there was apparently a large ancient exploitation of gold and silver, as there are big gangue heaps.’ This exploitation may well have begun in the Early Bronze Age. A piece of slag, which Mr. Davies believes to be a gold slag, was found on the surface at Hágios Mámas.

^{page 181 note 3} Cf. especially Tallgren, loc. cit. Fig. 68, 1, 5 (with central line), 6; Fig. 48, 5; also Kossinna, Mannus, No. 26, Fig. 127, from Jackowica. The position of these objects (about half-way through the Early Bronze Age stratum) permits them to be dated about 2200 B.C. (cf. p. 185), and this has an important bearing on the dating of the battle-axe culture in S. Russia.

The single sherd of Schnurkeramik might perhaps be used as evidence in the same connection. From its stratified position (virgin soil) it should belong to a date about 2500 B.C. Miss Goldman informs me that this ware occurs in Early Helladic strata at Eutresis, and I have seen at least one sherd from Hágia Márina in the Chaeronea Museum.
