Description
Agios Andreas, Gavalou. M. Stavropoulou-Gatsi (then Στ’ ΕΠΚΑ) reports the discovery of two stone-lined cist tombs, oriented east-west, on a site where four tombs had previously been discovered. All of these tombs likely belong within a peribolos, and were located beside the ancient road to Thermon, forming part of the cemetery of anc. Trichoneion.
Tomb I contained one skeleton, further bones perhaps from a transferred burial, a West Slope askos of guttus type, and a few sherds (fig. 1). Tomb 2 contained the skeleton of a youth, a Corinthian-type skyphos, a handleless skyphos and a small oinochoe, a bronze kantharos, an iron strigil, seven or eight egg-shells, and at least 140 knuckle-bones (figs 2-3). The assemblage dates to the third quarter of the fourth century.
