Description
Ligortynos. A. Mylopotamitaki, M. Mavritsaki and N. Marnellou (13th EBA) report on excavations at the three-aisled church of Ag. Triada (Figs 1-3) in 2008. The ruins were choked by destruction debris, including worked stone, brick and wall-plaster (indicating at least two phases of use) with traces of burning (Figs 4-12). Reused elements include an Ionic column and a Roman column capital: a later floor was cobbled. Other finds include part of a carved stone embellishment from a window, a bronze lock and an iron pyxis. Ceramic evidence indicates that the building was in use from the 11th to 15th or 16th century AD, although most pottery dates to the 12th and 13th centuries. As well as domestic wares, there was a continuing presence of glazed vases (often small vessels such as cups and basins), including various incised styles (Figs 13-28). In the narthex and outside the church to the east were nine cist tombs, some with multiple burials (e.g. tomb 7 held 27 skulls), but three with singles (Fig. 29). Venetian bronze coins were found in tombs 1 and 6.
