[to the north of the mask] Zone 130, on the earliest floor white thick, at - 1m 80, Mycenaean sherd III B found in situ, during the gradual dismantling of the baulks left dans the N-E corner of the west locus, (cf. stratigraphic diagram on large sheet), pt. 694 (a handle of small Mycenaean cup was also found on the same floor, a little earlier). Here, then, the existence of the Mycenaean layer is clearly proven, but it is difficult to link the surrounding architecture to it (the walls rest indeed on the floor white with Mycenaean III B sherds, and therefore can only be later).
