Area C Gallery
Area C provided important information on the urban layout of the southern part of the acropolis through time. Indeed, the 2009 and 2010 excavation revealed a long sequence of open areas and some domestic buildings located all around. Of particular relevance is the LB I phase, characteridze by a thick destruction layer and many in situ materials especially pottery vessels. Less preserved are instead the archaeological deposits and structure dating to the Iron Age III and the Hellenistic period.
