A decorative pottery style of the Early Minoan I period (3100-2700 BC). It is named after the hill just north of Phaistos where pottery of this type was first found. The vessels are decorated in red on a buff ground with intersecting groups of vertical and oblique parallel lines, often combined with horizontal lines, giving the impression of dividing the surface into sections. Variations on this style of decoration are found at many Cretan sites but are particularly popular in the Mesara. Agios Onouphrios Ware marks the appearance of painted decoration on the pottery of Minoan Crete.
