VOULA - 2006

Voula, 149 Spetson Street (O.T. 147, property of B. Kassimati). Triantafyllia Kattoula (ΚΣΤ’ ΕΠΚΑ) reports the discovery of a further section of the road that ran across the deme of Halai Aixonidae and connected it to the adjacent demes.The road was 2.5m wide and ran west-east. Poorly preserved retaining walls were found on both sides (fig. 1), constructed in different techniques (the north wall built of small stones and large limestone boulders, and the south of medium-size stones). The small quantity of pottery retrieved included two fragments of a third-century AD lamp with herringbone decoration and two concentric cycles on the base. However, other excavated sections of this road attest to its long period of use from the fifth century BC until the Byzantine period.
