MOSCHATO - 2006

Moschato, 35 Eleutherias Street (property of X. Skordara). Maria Petritaki (ΚΣΤ’ ΕΠΚΑ) reports the discovery of an 11.3m-long stretch of the South Long Wall (fig. 1) belonging to the third construction phase, including the Lykourgan repair of 338-330 BC. The wall, oriented east-west, was founded on clay soil, is 4.2-4.8m wide, and is preserved to a height of four courses of limestone blocks (1.9m). A second wall (preserved to a length of 3.8m) ran parallel to it, 8.2m to the south. This wall was built of limestone blocks, on one of which stood a marble lekythos.

Part of a funerary stele, depicting the leg and knee of a seated woman, was found north of the fortification wall.
