9530: The "South Propylaeum", as we see it
today, is a result of the restoration of Evans who
put up a copy of the "Cup-Bearer" fresco here. The
wall painting depicted a man holding a libation
vase (rhyton). Its theme is connected with the
"Procession Fresco" which, according to Evans,
reached here the "South Propylaeum". The pithoi
(large storage jars) on the east side of the
Propylaeum belong to the Postpalatial Period
(1450-1100 BC), and indicate that the area was
later used for storage. Palace of Knossos (Crete).
