Knossos: The Little Palace

The Little Palace at Knossos, excavated by Evans and Mackenzie from 1905-1910, remains the largest neo-palatial building within the Minoan town of Knossos, and to a large extent mirrors the history of the Palace itself. The volume provides an extremely detailed architectural account, supported by numerous plans and elevations. It incorporates the results of the 1995 restoration program carried out by the 23rd Ephoreia and publishes sherd material then collected. A lengthy pottery chapter presents the sherd material from Evans excavations. Clay tablets and sealings are discussed; small finds presented. The final chapter offers a thorough appraisal of the palaces history.
