Description
Patras, 170 Germanou and Palaiologou Streets. A. Koumousi (6th EBA) reports the discovery of a cist tomb inside a walled area. The structure incorporates re-used material including a Roman soft limestone angle block with carved decoration on three faces. Within the tomb was a second tile grave with a single burial.
A potter’s workshop and storage facility of the fifth-late sixth or early seventh century were also found. Futher, rescue excavation in 2006 on the neighbouring plot to the west revealed a further workshop with tens of whole vessels.
Finds comprise a terracotta bread stamp which may be a product of the workshop (Fig. 1), part of a white marble kioniskos, a bronze ring and 10 bronze coins (including two Venetian torneselli).
