Report
Prinias. D.S. Palermo (SAIA/Catania) reports on the restoration of the Tripartite Building and Temple A (Fig. 1).
The walls of the Tripartite Building, excavated in 2007 and 2009, are 0.6-0.7m thick. The porous local stone suffers spalling due to freeze-thaw damage. The walls were supported and given covering of sieved earth, with the top 0.2-0.3m left clear (Fig. 2).
Inside the Temple, repairs to the north wall of the eschara necessitated its partial removal (Fig. 3). A concrete repair made in 1969 by the SAIA had replaced the stones found by Pernier: under it, ca. 0.5m of modern earth and rubble covered undisturbed archaeological levels. Stone slabs, matching the originals, were substituted.
