dc.description.abstractA great deal of evidence exists in support of Bronze Age intra-Aegean trade, but the dynamics and material goods that made up these exchanges are still being explored. Initially, foreign glass most likely originated in Western Asia and Egypt. Recent excavations at the Minoan sites of Chryssi, Papadiokambos, and Mochlos have provided evidence of such trade on Crete. All three sites yielded glass beads that, judging by their rarity in the region, must have come from elsewhere. While glass artifacts such as those found on Minoan Crete are often assumed to be Egyptian in genesis, a Western Asian source has not been sufficiently ruled out. Based on their findspots, appearance, and our present understanding of shipping and trade in the Bronze Age Aegean, it is most likely that the beads from Chryssi, Papadiokambos, and Mochlos were manufactured in the Levant and arrived in Crete from the East.
