ARGOS - 2000

Argos, Belinou-Zografou Street (M. Grammatikou property). E. Pappi (Δ' ΕΠΚΑ) reports on rescue excavation in a plot in the centre of Argos, northwest of Stratonon Square. An Archaic level contained pottery, a few miniature vessels (mostly phialae), and human and animal figurines. No building remains were found, probably due to the small area excavated. On the northeastern boundary of the plot, a built cist grave, probably of Geometric date and oriented north-south, contained a single inhumation with the cranium to the north. The deceased had a bronze pin on each shoulder and wore a bronze ring.
