Aftrati - 2008

Aftrati . Maria Mavraki-Balanou (ΚΓ’ ΕΠΚΑ) reports that after being notified of the by the antiquities guard about the potential existence of a grave, the Ephorate  conducted a small salvage excavation in Aftrati, at the right slope of the rural road which leads to the chapel of Profitis Elias. The entire area was probably the acropolis of an ancient town. After the partial removal of the deposit, it became apparent that there was no grave present, but only a block made of three chiseled stones, potentially deriving from an ancient wall, whose remains can be found everywhere at the higher parts of the hill. No pottery was collected.
