Description
Gremoulias Chelmou Kalavriton. Georgia Alexopoulou (ΣΤ’ ΕΠΚΑ) reports on further excavation at the ancient temple, with work focused in the western end of the cella where the south-west corner and southern and western walls were located (Fig. 1), consisting of two courses of limestone blocks Approximately 2.5 m. to the south, the southern peristasis of the temple was also investigated (Fig. 2), at the base of which the eythynteria protrudes by about 0.12-0.14 m. Within the cella and about 3.5 m. from the western wall, was a stony layer from which a number of iron lances were recovered. Additional finds included tiles, lead fragments, iron nails, unmodified wild-boar teeth and fine pottery (Fig. 3). Work was also carried out about 6 m. from the eastern narrow side of the temple, where the altar was excavated. Built of spolia it probably derived from an earlier Archaic temple (Fig. 4). Finds from this area included iron lances, fragments of lead, fine pottery, fragments of sima in the shape of a lion’s head, fragments of a female figurine, a bronze laurel leaf and bones.
