The block first came to the attention of archaeologists during the excavations of Pseira in 1906-07, and has provided the fullest sequence of building phases of any one area of the town in eastern Crete. Among the complex architectural details are a pillar crypt, elaborate upstairs floors, a well preserved U-shaped staircase, and a well designed kitchen. Though extensively rebuilt and remodeled during its long history, it has not been looted, as other cities have over the centuries. After a history of the excavation, this report describes the architecture and material culture. Among these are pottery, ground and chipped stone tools, stone weights, plaster, plant remains, faunal remains, and fish remains. Interpretations and conclusions are also provided for the architectural history and room functions and activities in the buildings. Distributed in North America by The David Brown Book Co.
