AIGION - 2005

Aigion, 12 Dodecaneson Street (property of A. Panagopoulou). E.-I. Kolia (ΣΤ’ ΕΠΚΑ) reports the discovery of Neolithic to post-Byzantine remains. Four round pot-Byzantine refuse pits (1m across) had destroyed earlier structures and disturbed prehistoric levels. Eleven fragmentary wall sections could not be associated with structures. This may be an Early Helladic (residential?) structure (dated by ceramic finds), but was disturbed by Byzantine and post-Byzantine activity. A small area in the northwest of the plot produced undisturbed Late Neolithic strata containing evidence of fire, unworked stones, masses of clay, a large quantity of coarse and fine decorated pottery, animal bone, and obsidian and flint blades and cores.
