| Summary: | Delphi and Medeon were cities located in South Phocidia which could be thought to have been fairly similar. As a matter of fact, their history was very different and their relationships seem to have been slight. Delphi overlooks a valley strongly occupied by large Bronze Age sites that were all abandoned or partly relinquished to Delphi’s benefit at the time of the major havoc round about 1200. On the contrary, Medeon uninterruptedly survived. After that troubled time, the comparative study of ceramics shows different relationships during the Xth and IXth centuries, with a greater opening on to the sea for Medeon and relationships with western Locrida and Beotia, while Delphi looks towards Thessalia and Eubia. The funereal rites also show a greater severance between Medeon and the North than can be observed at Delphi. |
