Description
Astra site, (private property of Kopsiafti brothers), Astros, Kynouria region. Eleni Kalavria and Grigoris Grigorakakis (ΛΘ’ ΕΠΚΑ) report on the rescue excavation which took place in the property of D. Kopsiafti. This excavation happened because of the discovery of an attic column base (ionic) in 2008, which was transported in the Astros Museum in 2008.
The excavation revealed walls covered in hydraulic mortar, ypokausta (heated floors), and clay pipes. Part of a floor covered in large slabs was found. It is considered that the area dated to the Roman times and that it was a bath (or at least extensive use of water was being done).
