		Tanagra appears to have first been settled in the Neolithic period by a small group of farmers and there is evidence for the same kind of small settlements throughout the Bronze Age.
		This manuring system is still to be dated for Tanagra, but the city of Thespiae has shown a similar phenomenon that can be dated to the Classical period in accordance with the expansion of the population and size of the city.
