    The Earliest Harbour Installations on Aegean Foreshores

    bs_bs_bannerbs_bs_banner The International Journal of Nautical Archaeology (2019) 48.1: 85–102 doi: 10.1111/1095-9270.12328 The Earliest Harbour Installations on Aegean Foreshores Joseph W. Shaw University of Toronto, Ontario M5S 1A1, Canada This article aims to raise awareness of a few newly discovered prehistoric harbour facilities in Crete. In particular is an unusual, if not unique, slipway suggesting how large ships were hauled up on to the land at Middle Minoan II Kommos. Also, there are huge, successive structures (Buildings T and P) with long galleries that served as shipsheds inviting close scrutiny, as well as comparison with the later Classical shipsheds sheltering elite warships of the Greek city states. The three newly excavated Minoan buildings fit historically into the beginning of a now extended tradition of Classical shipsheds. The latter are compared here with their prehistoric counterparts and briefly discussed concerning origin, development, and aspects of cultural or historical significance. © 2018 The Author Key words: harbour installations, Aegean foreshores, shipsheds, Kommos, Piraeus, Samos. xcavation at Kommos, in Crete (Fig. 1) did cleaned as best we could with the little time that we not occur by chance. It came about after I had then. It ran east-west, beginning at the shore and E had worked at Roman Kenchreai, the eastern obviously partly destroyed by the sea waves. Later, port of Ancient Corinth, with Robert Scranton, and it was confidently published as a Minoan ‘walkway’ at the prehistoric Minoan site of Kato Zakros, Crete, of the type often found set in the west courts of with Nikolaos Platon.

    Lucy Goodison Where did the Mesara-type tombs travel from?* Abstract The excavation of two new very early Mesara-type tombs, Mesorrachi and Livari, atypically located in north-east and south-east Crete respectively, has called for a revision of previous theories about the tombs’ origin. Past studies have used grave goods to measure Cycladic influence; debate continues as to whether such objects reflect interaction/trade in prestige items, or immigration. In contrast, tomb construction is a long-term labour-intensive project embodying beliefs about life and death, and as such it will reflect the strength of tradition that has taken root in situ. Easterly alignment of tomb entrances to face the dawn has long been recognised as a distinctive and significant feature of the tombs’ construction. The sun rises at a range of positions during the year from 60° at midsummer to 120° at midwinter, and a study of the orientation of the Mesara-type tomb entrances identified recurring patterns of alignment to sunrise at specific times in spring and autumn when the first light would, over a period of a few days, briefly enter through the low tomb doorway to illuminate the interior. At the same time it was possible to identify groups of exceptions with unusual alignment patterns. The same tombs also shared certain elements of geographical location, construction and contents suggesting groups of immigrants bringing off-island ideas and culture; in some cases there are specific Cycladic links. It is suggested that Cycladic input should be reconsidered as one of the many strands of influence from various sources that contributed to the development of the phenomenon that became the Mesara-type tombs.
