Description
Piraeus, 36-38 Flessa Street (property of A. Babe & Co). Kornelia Axioti (ΚΣΤ’ ΕΠΚΑ) reports the discovery of the parts of two Classical houses bordering two ancient roads, following the Hippodamian grid plan.
The corners of two houses from separate building complexes lie on opposite sides of a 5m-wide road (a 10m-long stretch of which was excavated, running northwest-southeast). Part of the same road was previously excavated at 33-35 Zaimi Street, and is identified as Road 6 on Höpfner and Schwandner’s map of the ancient Piraeus. A drain ran along its axis. A second road is tentatively identified as Höpfner and Schwandner’s Road G: a drain ran parallel to it, and traversed the first drain.
On the north side of the first road, a room was covered by a destruction layer including Laconian type roof tiles. On the south side, lay the corner of a room (figs. 1, 2, 3) with well-preserved masonry and a floor; the room contained fourth-century BC black-glaze and plain pottery.
