Anotations

Scope note:

Refers to an Early Neolithic style and culture predominant in Thessaly and part of Macedonia, and typified by artifacts from the rich site at Nea Nikomedeia in SW Macedonia. It is characterized by pottery that is better made and more varied than preceding styles, often having elaborate feet, and generally comprising red- or pink-slipped ware or red-on-white painted ware. It is also known for open settlements with free-standing architecture and rectangular structures typically made of an oak framework entwined by reeds and coated with mud.
