Report
Aegina town. E. Papastavrou (then Β’ ΕΠΚΑ, now Byzantine and Christian Museum) reports on excavation at Koumoundourou Street (A. Cheliotou property) where two ancient walls were uncovered. To the west was a rectangular cistern, 1.2m x 0.94m and 1.58m deep, built from large unworked stones coated with mortar. The walls may be related to the Roman bath found in a neighbouring plot (ADelt 37 [1982] Chr, 48−49).
At Kapodistriou Street (Lambrou property) trial trenches uncovered a robbed single-chambered tomb containing a large limestone sarcophagus. A second underground chamber was not investigated.
At 4 P. and A. Kappou Street (Lekka property) a rectangular built wine press was excavated, plastered with cement. The centre was covered with small tiles, with a circular depression 0.95m in diameter and 0.5m deep.
