A STUDY OF BUILDING III AT THE NEOLITHIC ACROPOLIS OF HALAI, GREECE

FURUYA, YUKI

Abstract Details

2004, MA, University of Cincinnati, Arts and Sciences : Classics.
Building III is a Middle Neolithic structure in the archaeological site of Halai. It is a one-room unit of 5 sq. m. made of stone and mudbrick. Radiocarbon analysis gives it a date of 5900 to 5700 BC. Bldg. III is prominent among the six MN structures excavated at Halai, due to its good preservation and its extended period of occupation. Bldg. III remained in use while other older structures were built over with new ones. Bldg. III has signs of major restoration work. A buttress was created to fortify a collapsing wall. A doorway and window were sealed in reaction to the construction of the later structures in extreme proximity to it. The function of the room appears to have been adjusted from food processing to storage, to suit its structural alteration, as evidenced by the finds.
