Description This study is dealing with possible dietary scenarios for the groups of individuals from the Lower Gypsades and Ailias tombs near the palatial site of Knossos, which date back to the so-called Neopalatial Period (MM III – LM I). Two types of models were created using the FRUITS software (2.1.1 Beta version). The resulting scenarios imply that the diet of these groups was prevailingly based on plant food with a significant proportion of legumes, which was supplemented with consumption of meat from terrestrial animals and sea fish.
