The Administration of Haghia Triada

Haghia Triada is a Minoan site in Southern Crete. It has yielded the largest amount of Linear A inscriptions so far, dated to the LM IB period. This paper discusses various aspects of the administration of this complex. Firstly, the geographical distribution of the inscriptions within the buildings is discussed. After that the paper analyses the similarities and differences in the vocabulary between two main parts of the complex, the Villa and the Village. A similar analysis is afterwards given for the ideograms. Finally, attention is paid to some particular words whose meaning we have tried to understand on the basis of the contextual particularities of the inscriptions.
