2) Discovery of a layer of settling mud of Mycenaean date (UF 110), submerged marine sediment, biocoenosis characteristic of calm-water muddy sands. the ramps seal this layer, which therefore indicates a progradation of the shoreline between the XIII and the IV BC. This progradation may be linked to:
- 1 coastal development "pushing back" the shoreline towards the S in relation with the ramps.
- 1 positive sedimentary budget, to be related to 1 silting of the basin.
- 1 lowering of the relative sea level . the Mycenaean layer is characterised at its top, over 10 cm thickness, and only on the W side, by a + reddish colour ( which may correspond to pseudo-gley type oxidation) at the top of the layer (UF 110) and therefore to a temporary emersion
