Nikolaos Platon (Greek Νικόλαος Πλάτων, Anglicised Nicolas Platon; (1909-01-08)8 January 1909 – (1992-03-28)28 March 1992) was a Greek archaeologist.
[1] Platon put forward one of the two relative chronologies currently used in Minoan archaeology.
It is based on the development of the architectural complexes known as "palaces" at Knossos, Phaistos, Malia, and Kato Zakros, and divides the Minoan period into Prepalatial, Protopalatial, Neopalatial, and Post-palatial periods.
The other system is based on pottery styles, as suggested by Arthur Evans.
