“…Yet we are considerably hindered when discussing the role of Kolonna in the region by the limited amount of evidence from the site pertaining to this period. However, both the recent finds from excavations at the site and the evidence from the cemetery at the Windmill Hill most likely associated with the settlement prove continuing activity during the LH IIIA2 and at least part of the LH IIIB period (Deger-Jalkotzy 2009). The evidence relating to the later stages of the thirteenth century bc (and of LH IIIB) becomes very scanty, possibly representing a further decline in activity at the site.…”

“…While discussing the settlements on Aegina, it is worth bringing to the discussion a single site located outside of the island – the extensive settlement of Kanakia on Salamis. The reason for this is a hypothesis formulated by S. Deger-Jalkotzy: that it was founded by refugees from Kolonna when that site was declining (Deger-Jalkotzy 2009; but see Marabea 2012, 184–5). A similar idea was proposed in relation to the development of the settlement of Lazarides in the palatial period (Polychronakou-Sgouritsa 2012).…”

This article investigates the final episodes of a long-lasting potting tradition that developed on Aegina during the Bronze Age. From c. 1400 bc, cooking pottery constituted the only class of that tradition that was still manufactured and exported in quantity. Detailed study of several settlement contexts from sites scattered along the Euboean and up to the Pagasetic Gulf dating to c. 1200 bc shows that pottery imported from Aegina became increasingly less available, whereas similar cooking pots produced in various non-Aeginetan fabrics appear at the same time. Macroscopic analysis of traces related to manufacture of such pots reveals that it followed the typical chaîne opératoire of the Aeginetan tradition, strongly suggesting that their appearance reflects technological transfer and, thus, could not be explained without taking mobility of potters into account. Following a comprehensive presentation of available evidence, we argue that potters trained in the context of the Aeginetan potting tradition produced cooking pottery in several locations along the Euboean Gulf and up to the modern city of Volos. By considering the socio-economic and political context of their activity, as well as the development of Aegina and its pottery production during the later stages of the Late Bronze Age, we are able to shed more light on potters’ motivations to move, as well as on the population and the time scale of this mobility phenomenon. It appears that it had two stages, characterised by itinerant activity followed by permanent relocation, and that it was relatively short-lived, as by c. 1150 bc Aeginetan-tradition potters become invisible in the archaeological record.
