Report
Kalligonio, between Kalligonio and Karyotes (road improvement works). G. Pliakou (then ΙΒ' ΕΠΚΑ) reports the results of work in three sectors along the Lefkada-Nidri road from the turn to Kalligonio to Spasmeni Vrysi, a route which runs the entire length of the ancient city from the north to the south arm of the fortification. (Fig. 1: site 2).
In sector A (ca. 150m south of the north fortification) were walls defining a room, probably of an ancient house, in polygonal masonry, inside which was a destruction deposit. There was likely a further room to the east. In sector B the corner of a building in roughly-worked blocks was located, with architectural members and an inscribed grave stele of northwestern Greek type. (Fig. 2). Sector Γ had sections of small walls of small worked blocks.
