IGOUMENITSA - 2000

In the southwest corner of the Kastro, a tile grave, oriented east-west, contained one burial accompanied by a lamp, a small pot and a glass unguentarium (?), plus an Imperial Roman bronze coin in the deceased’s mouth.

Excavation during restoration of the Pyrgos Ragiou revealed a rectangular, single-roomed Ottoman building (4.85m x 6m) beside the ancient walls. Metal horse-shoes and abundant iron nails indicate that this was a stable associated with the tower. Under its floor lay part of the foundation ditch for the ancient wall: finds from the area include two abraded bronze coins of Kerkyra of 300−229 BC.
