| الوصف: | The archaeological site of ‘Kleidi’ (meaning ‘key’) at Samikon is located between the sandy beach of theIonian Sea on the Gulf of Kyparissia and the Mount of Lapithos, essentially monitoring the route overland from thenorthwest to the southwest Peloponnese. Its strategic location has attracted the intensive habitation of the site from theMiddle Bronze Age up to the years of Ottoman domination. The Hellenistic fortification of the acropolis of Samikon,just opposite the prehistoric burial and residential contexts, described by Strabo and Pausanias, testifies once again tothe importance of this specific area. The present contribution attempts to reconsider the outcome of the old and recentexcavations in the area. The first archaeological investigations were carried out by Wilhelm Dörpfeld in the early 20thcentury, and the authors of this article conducted the latest excavations at the beginning of the 21st century. Althoughthe project for the overall publication of the findings is still at an early stage, our contribution intends to examine therole and the ‘status’ of Samikon within the so-called Mycenaean world and the kingdom of Pylos. Moreover, we wouldlike to clarify the relations and the connections with other adjacent archaeological sites, such as Kakovatos, Epitalionand Makrysia. The discussion of the historical topography, the burial and domestic architecture, the burial customs andthe presentation of new finds, will help to create a clearer picture of the habitation of the site. |
