Description
Petrina. The ΛΘ’ ΕΠΚΑ reports the following discoveries.
At Ag. Irini, Velona Petrinas, a Late Roman (second- to fourth-century) workshop complex was found, with two apsidal buildings, water supply and drainage channels, a well and a potter’s kiln. Finds include terracotta wedges, rings and vessel supports, vessels, figurine moulds, and masses of vitrified clay, all related to the operation of the workshop. The complex lies at the junction of two streams of the Evrotas, from which it obtained its water supply. Architectural remains of a Hellenistic settlement were found on the same site, as well as Early Bronze Age pottery.
At Monastiriako rema Ambelakiou Petrinas, Early and Late Bronze Age, and Late Roman architectural remains were found. Obsidian blades, stone tools, and pottery with painted and relief decoration date the settlement to the Final Neolithic-Early Helladic II period. On the same site is a Mycenaean roadside altar and votive deposit, with many finds including Φ, Ψ and bovine figurines, terracotta and stone beads, and decorated sherds (kylikes, skyphoi and phialae) dating from LH IIIA1 to LH IIIC. Nearby, was an agricultural facility and workshop, as well as tombs of the third to fourth centuries AD.
