Description
Acharnai, Aghias Triados and Boulgaroktonou Streets (O.T. 218, property of Ch. and P. Kalantzi). Maria Platonos (Β’ ΕΠΚΑ) reports the discovery of five graves, four of which (1, 2, 4 and 5) lay in the western part of the plot, and were set in parallel, oriented east-west.
Grave 1: a monolithic, marble sarcophagus (0.92 x 2.3 x 0.64m) with a pedimental cover contained bones, sherds and a cylindrical limestone object. The neck of a marble alabastron was collected from its fill.
Grave 2: a cist built of conglomerate slabs with plastered walls, north of grave 1. It contained a few bones and sherds, plus a fragment of a crooked marble staff.
Grave 3: an oval tile grave (1.24 x 0.38 x 0.51m, oriented east-west) lacking the eastern part. Flat tiles delimit all sides. The grave contained a few bones and four unguentaria; a pyramidal loom weight was found in the fill.
Grave 4: a cist built of conglomerate slabs, similar to grave 2 but slightly smaller. The grave contained a few bones, a few roof-tile fragments and sherds and two fragments of worked marble.
Grave 5: a monolithic limestone sarcophagus (0.78 x 2.1 x 0.77m) north of grave 4 contained a few sherds (many black-glazed), bones, fragments of an iron nail and a fourth-century BC squat lekythos. The broken cover had collapsed into the grave.
