Part IV. The Perseia Area

The following is an account of several excavations that I undertook on behalf of Professor Wace during the seasons of 1952 and 1953 at Mycenae. These were roughly confined to the area between the so-called Tombs of Clytemnestra and Aegisthus, but also included an extension to the east of the Perseia Fountain House, excavated in 1952. The excavations are dealt with under four sections which are as follows: 1. Area Z (the extension east of the Perseia Fountain House). 2. The East–West Wall (south of the Perseia Fountain House). 3. The area round the Tomb of Aegisthus. 4. The Great Poros Wall (on the east flank of the Tomb of Clytemnestra)
