Mycenaean Tholos Tomb

Lamiospito Tholos Tomb. Mycenaean, Late Helladic Period, 14th C. BCE

This tholos tomb is located about 300 meters to the west of the Neolithic ruins of Dimini, on the way to Sesklo. It is well preserved, and even though it was pillaged before its exploration by G. Kontdakis in 1884, some funerary artifacts were found during excavations (now at the National Archaeological Museum of Athens.

The monument was locked and inaccessible during my visit.
