Abstract
Abstract:The author purpose a join between two previously unassociated inscribed blocks from Axos,Crete.These Archaic inscriptinns (ICII v5 and ICII v6) are now lost, but published descriptions and drawings of the blocks, along with the text that results from this virtual join, strongly support their association.The new, composite text preserves part of a law or interstate agreement and appears to concern rituals attendant to war; it is examined here in the broader context of Cretan dedicatory habits and society during the Late Iron Age and the Archaic period.
