DescriptionThis work comprises the study of the finds from the excavation of the University of Ioannina and the Archaeological Society at Athens in the Mycenaean cemetery of Clauss near Patras, carried out between 1988-1992 under the direction of Professor Thanassis Papadopoulos. During the excavation project, fifteen chamber tombs were located and researched in detail, to be added to those already known from the pre-war excavations by Nikolaos Kyparissis. The presentation of the topic expands into seven thematic chapters, proceeding from the whole to the parts - and then returning to the whole. Thus, one progresses from the general review of the cemetery space and the sites, to the analytical description of the excavation, to remarks on the architecture, to the study of the finds, to the analysis of the burial customs and, finally, to the narration of the overall history of the cemetery according to chronological period and generation of its people. The last chapter is an addendum including a brief presentation of the anthropological analysis of the skeletal material, composed by Drs Photini J.P. McGeorge and Wieslaw Więckowski. The Mycenaean Cemetery at Clauss, Near Patras presents fragments of the life and death of some members of a local community that lived for almost four centuries at the western end of the Mycenaean world.
