Lefkandi
Lefkandi (Greek: Λευκαντί) is a coastal village on the island of Euboea, Greece. Archaeological finds attest to a settlement on the promontory locally known as Xeropolis, while several associated cemeteries have been identified nearby. The settlement site is located on a promontory overlooking the Euripos, with small bays forming natural harbours east and west of the site. The cemeteries are located on the hillslopes northwest of the settlement; the plots identified so far are known as the East Cemetery, Skoubris, Palia Perivolia, Toumba, in addition to further smaller groups of burials. The site is located between the island's two main cities in antiquity, Chalkis and Eretria. Excavation here is conducted under the direction of the British School at Athens, and is ongoing as of 2007 (Previous campaigns in 1964-8, 1981-4).
Occupation at Lefkandi can be traced back to the Early Bronze Age, and continued throughout the Bronze and Iron Ages, to end at the beginning of the Archaic period (early 7th century BCE). The known cemeteries cover only part of the periods attested in the settlement, dating to the Submycenaean through Subgeometric periods (c. 1050 – 800 BCE, the "Greek Dark Ages"). The abandonment of Lefkandi coincides with a rise in settlement activity in nearby Eretria, and it has been argued by the excavators that the site is, in fact, Old Eretria.

Love Can't
by: Mark WillsDrip, drop, down it came from the
Roof top, the morning rain, I hope it
Don't stop, it's been a long dry spell
Well, I'm pretty sure it's a sign we need to
Call work and tell a white lie, sayin'
Head hurts, you're not feeling too well
Oh, c'mon baby, let the world carry on without you
Right this minute ain't nobody needs you more than I do
Hey, we need a little fixing, there ain't nothin' love can't
So what do you say, we pull the covers over
And get a little closer and we do some catchin' up
A little you know what that's all about us today
'Cause the world can wait but love can't
Don't you miss having the time for a
Long kiss? You know, the kind
Where your heart skips and leads to other things
Why don't I lock up, you get the shades, never mind
I don't want to waste
One touch, I'm where I want to be
With you next to me
Hey, we need a little fixing, there ain't nothin' love can't
So what do you say, we pull the covers over
And get a little closer and we do some catchin' up
A little you know what that's all about us today
'Cause the world can wait but love can't
Hey, we need a little fixing, there ain't nothin' love can't
So what do you say, we pull the covers over
And get a little closer and we do some catchin' up
A little you know what that's all about us today
'Cause the world can wait but love can't
Love can't, love can't
