There has been some debate as to whether Greece made use of silver as a form of currency before the introduction of coinage in the 6th century BC. By analogy with the Levant one might expect that it did, but unlike the Levant there is virtually no evidence for this practice.

Conducted under the auspices of the British School at Athens, the Faculty of Classics, Cambridge, and the Ephorate of Antiquities of Boeotia, excavation of this tomb has recovered information that expands our knowledge of Mycenaean funerary practices and impacts on our understanding of the broader socio-political landscape of mainland Greece in the 14th century BC.
