Pottery from Knossos
L.M.i«, which was the last period in the island when white
paint, and that only as an accessory, was used, and Geometric
times. White paint, again as an accessory, appears in L.H.m
on the Mainland but is universally absent in Protogeometric
pottery.1 In Crete it is confined to the Knossos district, with
the exception of one or two vases obviously imported from that
region.2 A few bucchero vases were found in the tombs at
Knossos, the nearest parallel being the Rhodian ware.3
1 The one exception is the goat krater from Mouliana of Sub-
Minoan date.
