NAUPLION, Zybrakaki - 2001

Nauplion, Zybrakaki, Trapezountos Street (O.T. 352, property of N. Stypa, A. Phlyri and K. Christopoulou). Ch. Piteros (Δ’ ΕΠΚΑ) reports the discovery of a 40m-long stretch of a Late Archaic probable retaining wall running across two neighbouring plots and preserved to a height of 2m. The wall may have been intended as protection against flooding from a stream to the north. To the south of it lay a Late Archaic pithos burial of an infant with miniature vases (five kotyliskoi, an aryballos and a krateriskos).
