Franchthi Cave
Franchthi cave or Frankhthi cave ((ギリシア語:Σπήλαιον Φράγχθη)) is a cave overlooking the Argolic Gulf opposite the village of Koilada in southeastern Argolis, Greece.
The cave was occupied from the Upper Paleolithic circa 38,000 BCE (and possibly earlier)〔K. Douka, C. Perles, H. Valladas, M. Vanhaeren, R.E.M. Hedges, (2011). "Franchthi Cave revisited: the age of the Aurignacian in south-eastern Europe." Antiquity 85 : p.1146 http://www.academia.edu/1129937/Douka_K._Perles_C._Valladas_H._Vanhaeren_M._Hedges_R.E.M._2011._Franchthi_Cave_revisited_the_age_of_the_Aurignacian_in_south-eastern_Europe._Antiquity_85_1131-1150〕 through the Mesolithic and Neolithic periods, with occasional short episodes of apparent abandonment.〔Mary C. Stiner, Natalie D. Munro (2011) "On the evolution of diet and landscape during the Upper Paleolithic through Mesolithic at Franchthi Cave (Peloponnese, Greece)", Journal of Human Evolution p.619〕 Last occupied around 3,000 BCE (Final Neolithic), it is one of the very few settlements in the world that shows nearly continuous human occupation for such an extended period of time, and is one of the most thoroughly studied sites from the stone age in southeastern Europe.〔K. Douka, C. Perles, H. Valladas, M. Vanhaeren, R.E.M. Hedges, (2011) p.1133〕
==Excavation History==
Professor T.W. Jacobsen, Professor of Classical Archaeology and Classical Studies at Indiana University, began excavations at Franchthi Cave in 1967. The dig was only intended to temporarily occupy Jacobsen, and his fellow researcher, M.H. Jameson, for one short season, while they waited for land use issues to be resolved at a nearby site. But it soon became clear that Franchthi cave was more important than they had anticipated.〔Colin Renfrew (1994)"Review of Excavations at Franchthi Cave, Greece by T.W. Jacobsen" Journal of Field Archaeology Vol 21, No. 3, pp. 378-379〕 The excavation, overseen by Jacobsen, would continue for nearly a decade, ending in 1976. Since then numerous scholars have examined the extensive finds.〔William R. Farrand, (2003) "Depositional environments and site formation during the Mesolithic occupations of Franchthi Cave, Peloponnesos, Greece" The Greek Mesolithic: Problems and Perspectives, The British School at Athens p.69〕
