Abstract
THE Neolithic mound of Nea Nikomedeia1 lies some 25 km north-west of the mouth of the river Aliakmon, in the Macedonian Plain of Greece. Field evidence suggests that at the time of the Neolithic occupation the low land near the site, drained in the last century, may have been occupied either by a lake or by an arm of the Gulf of Thermai2.
