While 'corridor houses' like the House of the Tiles at Lerna have provoked widespread discussion about the origins of social stratification in Greece, few settlements of the Early Bronze Age (ca. 3100-2000 B.C.) have been thoroughly excavated. This important study integrates the presentation and analysis of the archaeological evidence from a single settlement that flourished on Tsoungiza Hill in the Nemea Valley from the Final Neolithic until the end of the Early Helladic period. The first part of the volume details the stratigraphy, architecture, deposits, and ceramics of each of the five major periods represented; chapters on the material culture follow, including the small finds, textiles, crafts and industry, chipped and ground stone and faunal and palaeoethnobotanical remains.
