Considered a \u2018marginal landscape\u2019 due to its remote position on the margins of the Thessalian plains in central Greece, the project aimed to re-evaluate the region from a more dynamic perspective by investigating its contributions to the formation of transport networks, agricultural developmental, pastoralism, and the management and utilization of natural resources. Architectural features discovered in the immediate periphery of Kastro, including fountain houses, a necropolis with tile graves, and numerous Early Iron Age tholos tombs, have been mapped by CAPS. To further investigate the funerary character of this area, CAPS cleared and documented two tholos tombs that had been looted, and has excavated one other to date.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Select Bibliography\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Haagsma, M.J., S.
