Description
Megali Vrisi, plot of A. Athanitis, Lefkada. Vivian Staikou (ΛΣΤ’ ΕΠΚΑ) reports on the continuation of the excavation of a Roman farmhouse, first discovered in 2006.
Twenty six more rooms were discovered this year, dating between the early Hellenistic and Roman periods.
To the E, rooms were found that seem to have been used for the storage of wine. There were also tanks that could have been used for the dying of fabrics with purple dye.
In the NE, rooms were found that are currently unique finds for Lefkada, namely a caladium connecting two rooms. Only the hypocaust and praefurnia survive. Several parts of tegulae mammatae were collected from the bath area.
The Hellenistic period features consist mainly of a storage area, filled with amphoras.
The excavation yielded large amounts of pottery, and Roman lamps with relief designs, as well as coins and fishing hooks.
