Description
Aigina, Kambos Mylon (property of K. Gennitsari). E. Papastavrou (ΚΣΤ' ΕΠΚΑ) reports the discovery of four cave-like structures cut into bedrock (three close together and the fourth at greater remove), entered via steps. In each case the roof was supported by a column of rock left in situ, and smaller chambers opened off the main chamber. Structure 1 was a long space entered via 17 steps: there were two alcoves in the south wall, a deeper long oval opening in the north, two air shafts opening up to the land surface, and a well in the north wall. To the northwest of the main opening was a second flight of roughly worked steps. Structure 2 was much smaller, with a lower oval chamber supported by a central column and entered via 13 steps; it had one unfinished air shaft. Structure 3 had a four-sided chamber supported by two columns and entered via 15 steps; it had two long alcoves in the north side and a semicircular opening in the east. Structure 4 had a four-sided chamber with five supporting columns, entered via 18 steps; it had alcoves in the walls, two wells and an air shaft. No material was found within the structures in contexts which permit determination of their date or function, although Classical pottery in the fill may relate to their use.
