1. The first investigation in the area was undertaken by the 22nd Ephorate of Prehistoric and Classical Antiquities of the Dodecanese and we are very grateful to the Director, Dr I. Papachristodoulou. Thanks are due to the Institute of Aegean Prehistory for its generous financial support over the subsequent three years (1994-6). It has also greatly facilitated Karantzali's research papers and the subsequent full publication of the cemetery.
