Blegen excavated here in the summers of 1915 and 1916. He used the results of his stratigraphic excavations and the material culture he collected to formulate the chronology of the Bronze Age for the Greek mainland coining the term Helladic. The site was inhabited continuously from the EH through to the end of the LH period as architectural remains and pottery indicate. A geophysical survey and archival research point to the existence of a substantial enclosure wall circling the site on the east, south and west sides. The date of construction of the wall is in need of investigation through excavation. Korakou was the harbor of a powerful Mycenaean Corinth acting as an emporium and entrepot in the area connecting east to west and north to south. Remnants of the site were probably visible in the Archaic period, during which time cemeteries existed in the general area.","Corinth:Image:digital 2015 3125::/Corinth/Photos/digital/2015 season photos/2015_3125.jpg::2000::1964","","","Corinthia | New Corinth | Korakou","" "","Image","Corinth","digital 2015 2511","","EARLY HELLADIC III PATTERNED WARE TANKARD","Dellatolas, Petros","Corinth:Image:digital 2015 2511","specific view","Corinth:Image:digital 2015 2511::/Corinth/Photos/digital/2015 season photos/2015_2511.jpg::1800::1285","2015-07-07 00:00:00+03","","Corinthia | New Corinth","" "","Image","Corinth","digital 2015 2512","","EARLY HELLADIC III PATTERNED WARE TANKARD","Dellatolas, Petros","Corinth:Image:digital 2015 2512","specific view","Corinth:Image:digital 2015 2512::/Corinth/Photos/digital/2015 season photos/2015_2512.jpg::1800::1285","2015-07-07 00:00:00+03","","Corinthia | New Corinth","" "","Image","Corinth","digital 2015 2513","","EARLY HELLADIC III PATTERNED WARE TANKARD","Dellatolas, Petros","Corinth:Image:digital 2015 2513","specific view","Corinth:Image:digital 2015 2513::/Corinth/Photos/digital/2015 season photos/2015_2513.jpg::1800::1285","2015-07-07 00:00:00+03","","Corinthia | New Corinth","" "","Image","Corinth","digital 2015 2514","","EARLY HELLADIC III PATTERNED WARE TANKARD","Dellatolas, Petros","Corinth:Image:digital 2015 2514","specific view","Corinth:Image:digital 2015 2514::/Corinth/Photos/digital/2015 season photos/2015_2514.jpg::1800::1285","2015-07-07 00:00:00+03","","Corinthia | New Corinth","" "","Image","Corinth","bw 2002 050 22a","","EH pottery","","Corinth:Image:bw 2002 050 22a","specific view","Corinth:Image:bw 2002 050 22a::/Corinth/Photos/negatives/year_roll/2002_050/2002_st_050_022A.jpg::1204::1800","","","Corinthia | New Corinth","" "American School of Classical Studies at Athens","Publication","Corinth","Blegen, Korakou; a prehistoric settlement ... 1921","","Korakou; a prehistoric settlement near Corinth,","Blegen, Carl William","Corinth:Publication:Blegen, Korakou a prehistoric settlement ... 1921","","","1921","","",""
