[to the north of the mask] Zone 130, on the earliest floor thick white, at - 1m 80, Mycenaean sherd III B found in situ, during the progressive dismantling of the baulks left in 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 white floor with the Mycenaean III B sherds, and therefore can only be later) _and date from III C 1_
