NEA ERYTHRAIA - 2008

Nea Erythraia. An excavation by the Β' ΕΠΚΑ of a 0.2ha plot at the junction of Ethnikis Antistaseos and Lemnou Streets uncovered a Neolithic settlement dating to 3,500 BC alongside an ancient tributary of the Kifissos river. Postholes of huts were found, with successive floors of packed earth and gravel, which included stone tools, obsidian blades and small shallow storage pits containing pots.
