The great amount of this material in Ftelia consists of a few hundred thousand sherds which were recorded and classified with much labor over the past years. The pottery from Ftelia is, overwhelmingly, homogeneous, and has been extensively studied as reported in the first volume of the final publication . However, over the last three years of excavation new types have been found, though they do not alter the established typology. In the same paper are examined some other items such as amphiconical objects, anchor-like objects and shaped pumice stone bearing incised symbols.

The site was located by the author who, as being then the head of the Ephorate of Cyclades, visited for the first time the island. Until then, Ftelia was not identified by any prehistoric archaeologist although its position was so obvious . It is surprising how the prehistoric archaeologists Belmont and Renfrew (1965) who visited this area of the island did not manage to identify the location and instead, they reported a site of minor importance (Mavri Spelia) located in the immediate area. However, Ftelia had been mentioned by the old classical archaeologist of Cyclades Ephorate, Kostas Tsakos, in an article (1989)(1990)) of a non-archaeological magazine, about which I was informed much later since I started the excavation of the site. It is in his honor that he had in his article diagnosed the importance of the site and had also predicted the date of Ftelia.
