The South-eastern Aegean Keywords: South-eastern Aegean, Rhodes, Kos, burials, graves, pottery, sanctuary, cremation, inhumation, past Introduction The area of the South-eastern Aegean is defined here as the region known today as the Dodecanese and parts of Anatolia on the opposite coast, like the Halicarnassos peninsula. This area of the Aegean had been under the Minoan cultural influence from as early as the Middle Bronze Age in terms of its material culture and architecture (Georgiadis 2003). The South-eastern Aegean has yielded many remains of the LH III and the EIA, whilst it possesses a strategic position in the Aegean Sea in relation to its contacts and interactions with the Eastern Mediterranean. The traditional forms of explanation for culturalACCEPTAT development and change in this region have focused on migration and the presence of newcomers. In fact, this has been a common denominator in the understanding of the Southern-eastern Aegean equally for the Late Helladic III period and the Early Iron Age. The thorough and up-to-date presentation of the different cultural aspects and periods from this area will demonstrate the regional character and the idiosyncrasies that are visible already from the LH III phase.

Papadopoulos, Chair This research project examines the appearance and proliferation of some of the earliest cremation burials in Europe in the context of the prehistoric north Aegean. Using archaeological and osteological evidence from the region between the Pindos mountains and Evros river in northern Greece, this study examines the formation of death rituals, the role of landscape in the emergence of cemeteries, and expressions of social identities against the backdrop of diachronic change and synchronic variation. I draw on a rich and diverse record of mortuary practices to examine the co-existence of cremation and inhumation rites from the beginnings of farming in the Neolithic period

Greek Mouldings of Kos and Rhodes
GREEK MOULDINGS OF KOS AND RHODES (PLATES 108-109) I. INTRODUCTION JT WAS regrettablethat it had not been possibleto makedrawings of the Dodeca- nesian material to include in the study of the profiles of Greek architectural mouldings published by the American School of Classical Studies at Athens in 1936.' Later opportunity arose 2 to make the drawings, full size with a Maco Template,3but their study was unfortunately delayed.4 The material is presented now as a supple- ment to the original volume. Considerations of printing have, however, made advisable certain changes in form as well as format, but it is hoped that this article may be used with the earlier publication without inconvenience, for the material in the two belongs together. It has not been possible to print all the profiles full size as in the original study, but Figure 1 is retained at full scale. It should be noted, then, in making comparison, that all the other profiles here presented, in Figures 2 through 8, are shown at one-half size. Information and comment regarding each profile, formerly presented in tabular form, is here put into catalogue form. All the same information given previously is included except the proportions. These were published originally as part of the proof of the chronological development noted in each type. Since the general lines of development appear now to have become established, it has not been considered essential to record the proportions. Only two of the Twelve Islands have yielded as yet any considerable Greek archi- tectural remains. Rhodes, with its numerous settlements, was an important seat of 1 L.
