Giannakaki Agrokipio, 73100 Chania Tel: +30281083434, Fax: +302821093963, Email: [email protected] 1 INTRODUCTION Oliviculture has always been connected to the history of Crete and apparently dates back as far as 8.000 years. It is connected to the tradition, religion, art as well as the social and economic life of the inhabitants ever since civilization started leaving its mark on the island. Today, olive orchards constitute one of the most dominant elements in the natural environment of the island, covering 65% of the farming land, and offer employment to almost the majority of its farming families. Oliviculture together with tourism make up two of the most important economic resources in Crete. It offers a significant income to the island and constitutes an interesting and cherished activity to a large part of its inhabitants. The aim of this study was to identify the problems, to come up with ways to take advantage of new possibilities-opportunities and to apply modern proposals – trends in the field of oliviculture. The main topics of this study are: • Identification and study of oliviculture systems. -

The reason for this is because we Tdo not have a monthly meeting in August and the saving in postage costs is considerable. Chairman Vice Chairman There are many interesting articles this time, Neil Carter Lynn Farrell including four by the ‘Farrell’ team and two by Anita 01372 386048 01372 451797 Laycock, another regular contributor, but we also have two members new to contributing to your magazine. I found Cynthia Watson’s piece on architecture particularly pleasing, but it is an interest of mine. I was also very pleased to reproduce a painting by Peter Brazier who apart from being a good watercolour painter is a previous editor Secretary Treasurer Gillian Arnold Chris Pullan of Senior Moments. Lynn and Mike Farrell’s piece on 01372 45204 01372 454582 Crete interested me not just for the content of an island they know well, but it reminded me of the middle book (Officers and Gentlemen) of Evelyn Waugh’s War Trilogy,— Sword of Honour, where he gives a very good insight into the chaos and muddle that must accompany many military operations. -

Haggis) The Early Iron Age (c. 1200-700 B.C.) on Crete is a period of transition, comprising the years after the final collapse of the palatial system in Late Minoan IIIB up to the development of the polis, or city-state, by or during the Archaic period. Over the course of this period, significant changes occurred in settlement patterns, settlement forms, ritual contexts, and most strikingly, in burial practices. Early Iron Age burial practices varied extensively throughout the island, not only from region to region, but also often at a single site; for example, at least 12 distinct tomb types existed on Crete during this time, and both inhumation and cremation were used, as well as single and multiple burial. -
