This volume is the first in a series publishing the results of the excavations carried out in the area immediately northeast of the palace of Malia. It presents the history of research and a period-by-period overview describing each building, room, and space with a complete inventory of the associated finds, including some 14C-dated samples. The main results of these researches concern the history of the palace of Malia, as well as the evolution of the entire site. On one hand, the identification of houses-with-workshops of the same date as those of Quartier Mu (Middle Minoan II) confirms the homogeneous character of the Malia Protopalatial settlement. On the other hand, the study of the Late Minoan I architectural remains reveals a surprising degree of monumentality for a palace entrance that was previously considered as secondary; the subsequent changes in its exterior arrangements can be interpreted as a gradual encroachment of the palace onto this area of the town. Moreover a new stratigraphically based Neopalatial pottery chronology is presented.
