Description
Veni. E. Tegou reports on excavation on this upland plateau (Figs 1-2) conducted in 2006, south of the Venetian Church of Christ the Saviour. Parts of two rooms were found in separate areas. In the first (Tr 5) (Fig. 3), a lamp (Fig. 4), a pithos (Fig. 5), a loomweight and part of a stone vase (Fig. 6) were retrieved from within the corner angle of two walls. From similar circumstances in the second (Tr 9), (Fig. 7) destruction debris contained a bronze lamp, three coins (of Eleutherna, Rethymnon and perhaps Sybrita), seven clay vases (Figs 8-11) and 21 loomweights of varied shapes. The coins and the vases (which are mostly domestic wares) indicate a second century BC date. A total of 96 loomweights (Figs 12-13) was recorded.
