Report
Megali Vrysi, A. Lazari property. G. Pliakou (ΙΒ' ΕΠΚΑ) reports the excavation of the southwestern part of a Roman farmstead, much of which was found in 1997−1998. (Fig. 1: site 4; Figs 2-3).
Two further rooms were found extending to the south boundary of the house, making a row of six contingent rooms running east-west. The lower parts of the walls were preserved, in rubble and broken tile with mortar, with a mortar coating probably to support a cut block superstructure. An extensive deposit of roof tiles covered the whole building. Finds include an inscribed grave stele in secondary usage.
In 2001 the excavation baulks were removed to expose the complete plan, and 14 inscribed grave stelai and architectural members removed to store.
