LEONDARI Kastro - 2008

Leondari. D. Athanasoulis (Director, 25th EBA) reports the discovery of fragments of LByz wall-painting and sherds at the Med Kastro, during excavation conducted as part of cleaning operations after the forest fires of summer 2008 had destroyed dense vegetation around the monument. The finds relate to the period, during the 15th Ct, when the Kastro was the seat of Thomas Palaiologos, brother of Constantine, the last Byz emperor.
