PROLOGUE

This year the biennial colloquium presenting current research by our Departmentcelebrates its tenth anniversary. It has weathered all storms, notably the financial plights ofGreek universities, to become an institution that is still going strong.

Its aim is threefold. First and foremost, the colloquium offers a perspective ofcurrent research by members of the Department and graduate students to colleagues and thegeneral public. In this respect, given the wide range of interests of staff and students,members of the Department have an opportunity to hear about each other's work. Thecolloquium also offers a lesson in methodology to students, both undergraduates andgraduates, who are always keen to attend.

We are confident that our colloquium will continue to thrive, presenting to thecommunity current research in our fields conducted in this University against all odds anddespite hard times, which we hope will be overcome in the not too distant future.

NOTA KOUROU

!ENOS: THE CEMETERYY AT THE SITE “VARDALAKOS”

In the years 2013-2014 the excavation of the University of Athens at Xobourgo on

Tenos focused at the site "Vardalakos" in SE hillside, where part of an archaic-

classical cemetery was investigated. This is the first systematically explored cemetery

of the Archaic and Classical period in Tenos, but also the single cemetery that has

been identified at Xobourgo, which remained the political and economic center of the

island until at least the mid-4th c. BC.

The cemetery expands on either side of a road that led straight to the settlement of the

Classical period. Of particular interest is the spatial organization of the cemetery and

some of the burial customs identified. On one side of the road the graves are simple,

cist or tile, graves with large, rough tombstones and a few pyre pits dispersed among

them. But on the other side of the road the area was occupied by complex built

structures with decorated grave stelai and other splendid monuments.

Among the burial customs identified of special importance is an animal sacrifice on

the paving of a burial construction, and the use of specific ritual utensils and vessels

over some constructions. A stone and a clay sarcophagus complete the variety of

burial monuments in this burial ground in the Cyclades, which proves to be of major

importance in understanding Cycladic societies of the Classical period. The research

is a continuation of the old excavation project by the late N.M. Kontoleon and aims to

put forward a full study of the site and its monuments.
