Mycenae Excavation 1920-1923: Season 1923
Excavation: Research excavation
During this period a little supplementary work was done on the palace to verify details for Dr. Holland's plan, a drain was dug round the tomb of "Aegisthus " to prevent damage by rain in winter, and the report as far as it existed in manuscript was checked on the spot. A small excavation was made on the north side of the ridge of the tomb of Clytemnestra to verify a report of the existence of Cyclopean walls. The remains of a building were found, which seems to be part of a large and important structure dating at latest from the beginning of the third late Helladic period. The absence of floors in the building is most remarkable and it does not+F48 appear to be a house. This is the first large building at Mycenae, not definitely a tomb, which has been found outside the Acropolis wall and the Hellenistic town wall.
Active in 1923.
