With one exception (no. 36) these terracottas all come from excavations in the neighbourhood of the Royal Road conducted between 1957 and 1961. They are a mixed lot, and the stratigraphy, although carefully observed, is seldom very helpful. They range from the Geometric to the Roman period. Apart from a few correspondences with pieces from the Demeter Sanctuary on Gypsades at Knossos, these figurines find few parallels in Crete or elsewhere, and serve to underline our essential ignorance of post-Minoan Cretan terracottas
