MAROUSI - 2006

Marousi, 51 Makrygianni Street (property of G. Pressa). Demetrios Palaiologos and Maria Stefanopoulou (Β’ ΕΠΚΑ) report the discovery of two pyres, one on top of the other, oriented east-west and containing bones. The later pyre 1 is dated to the second quarter of the fifth century B.C. by an intact lekythos in the ash layer. Pottery from the earlier pyre 2 included sherds of a lekythos and a pyxis. All the pottery excavated bore traces of burning.
