The
Hagia Triada sarcophagus is a late
Bronze Age 137 cm-long limestone
sarcophagus. It was originally dated to 1400 BC and was rediscovered in
Hagia Triada on
Crete in 1903. It provides probably the most comprehensive iconography of a pre-Homeric
thysiastikis ceremony and one of the best pieces of information on noble burial customs when Crete was under
Mycenaean rule, combining features of
Minoan and Mycenaean style and subject matter. The sarcophagus is on display in the
Heraklion Archaeological Museum.
