Chalandriani (Greek: Χαλανδριανή) is a major early Bronze Age cemetery on the island of Syros in Greece, dated to the Early Cycladic II period (Keros-Syros culture, 2600–2300 BC).[1] The fortified prehistoric settlement of Kastri [el; la] is located north of Chalandriani. Chalandriani was first excavated by the Greek classical archaeologist Christos Tsountas in 1898.
