Abstract

Excavations1 undertaken since 2002 at Priniàs2 revealed new remarkable data about the history of the area on which the temple was built during the late 7th century B.C. The reconstruction of the history of this area plays an essential role in understanding the way in which the temple was introduced into the urban context and in visualizing its impact . This matter is strictly tied with the reassemblage of the sculptural fragments. In the recent field works, new findings of sculptural and architectural decoration fragments have been an invaluable help to the project of study and reassemblage of the whole complex.
