Abstract: Excavations at Pylos by Carl Blegen and Marion Rawson produced a vast corpus of wall painting fragmentsbelonging to the final phase of decoration at the so-called Palace of Nestor. The simultaneous discovery of depositsof painted plaster in extramural dumps and intramural construction debris, however, indicated the existence of earlierdecorative programmes at the site. The date of such prior programmes has long been a subject of debate. We can nowbegin to resolve this issue using new information provided by the recent shelter excavations at Pylos, which brought tolight painted plaster fragments in deposits of early Mycenaean date. These fragments, which feature monochrome aswell as abstract and figural decoration, help to refine our understanding of the early stylistic, iconographic, and technologicaldevelopment of wall painting on the Greek mainland. This paper presents an overview of the newly uncoveredearly material and offers preliminary observations about its character in comparison with concurrent developmentselsewhere in prehistoric Greece. Keywords: Palace of Nestor, Pylos, wall painting, early Mycenaean, bird Published Online: 2021/05/25 14:46:10 Object Identifier: 0xc1aa5576 0x003c7f3f Rights: . Die mykenische Kultur Griechenlands (ca. 1700–Mitte des 11. Jahrhunderts v. Chr.) hat ein herausragendes materielles Erbe in Form von Gebäuden und Artefakten hinterlassen. Lange konzentrierte sich ihre Erforschung auf Paläste und Grabmonumente. In den letzten Jahren hat sich dies jedoch erheblich geändert, was ein besseres Verständnis der Entstehung der mykenischen Kultur im 17. bis 15. Jahrhundert v. Chr. ermöglicht. Die Beiträge in diesem Band liefern neue Informationen, entweder Erkenntnisse aus neueren Feldforschungen, oder solche, die auf der neuerlichen Analyse zentraler Fundgruppen basieren bzw. umfassende vergleichende Studien darstellen, die durch die Untersuchung von Siedlungen und Gräbern neue Perspektiven auf die Entstehung einer neuen Gesellschaftsordnung eröffnen. …
The Mycenaean culture of Greece (ca. 1700–mid-11th century BC) has left an outstanding material legacy in terms of buildings and artefacts. For a long time, its exploration has focused on palaces and funerary monuments. However, in recent years the state of research has changed significantly, opening up new perspectives for a broader understanding of the emergence of Mycenaean culture in the 17th to 15th centuries B.C. The contributions in this volume provide new information, either insights from recent fieldwork, the fresh analysis of key assemblages, or more comprehensive comparative studies that, by examining settlements and tombs alike, open up new perspectives on the emergence of a new social order.
