Category:East Pillar Room area and Megaron at Phylakopi
The East Pillar Room is building complex which has two ground-floor rooms. Late Cycladic I period (ca 1600 BC) similiar wall-painting at Akrotiri on Thera.
The Mycenaean Megaron (northwest of the East Pillar Room) in Phylakopi was built in the early 14th century BC (Late Helladic III A period). At the time of Minoan influence (ca 16th century BC, Late Cycladic I-II period) a mansion dominated the northeast area Phylakopi. It is suspected to have served as the administrative centre of the city, because the Mycenaean megaron was built later on the same site and indeed incorporated its predecessor. The hypothesis is sthrengthened by discovery inside this building of a clay tablet inscribed in Minoan Linear A script.
