The House of the Tiles is a monumental Early Bronze Age building (two stories, approximately 12 x 25 m) located at the archaeological site of Lerna in southern Greece.

[3][4] The site was excavated during the early 1950s by the American School of Classical Studies under the direction of John Langdon Caskey of the University of Cincinnati.

[5] The structure dates to the Korakou culture, also known as the Early Helladic II period (2500–2300 BC) and is sometimes interpreted as the dwelling of an elite member of the community, a proto-palace, or an administrative center.

[9] Although such roofs were also found in the Early Helladic site of Akovitika[10] and later in the Mycenaean towns of Gla and Midea,[11] they only became common in Greek architecture in the 7th century BC.

[13] John Coleman, however, argued in 2000 that the elaborate structure of the tumulus built during the Early Helladic III period over the ruins of the House of the Tiles indicates a "showing of respect for their predecessors that one would not expect of invaders of a different culture.
