Report
Athens - Plaka, 2–4 Polygnotou Street. Kleio Tsorgka (Ephorate of Antiquities of Athens) reports on discoveries made during the construction of a lift shaft.
Post-Byzantine walls came to light (in the E area of the site), and a Late Roman stratum was investigated. To the W of the site, building material from a Late Roman structure was found, including marble architectural pieces. A pipe was also uncovered, thought to serve as the water supply in the Roman or Late Roman period.
