Report
7 Mitsa Street (Kaika property). M. Petritaki (ΚΣτ ΕΠΚΑ) reports the discovery of part of a fourth-century circular grave monument (largely destroyed). Eight courses of limestone blocks were revealed (five for the foundation and three for the superstructure). A curved line of stones at the edge of course II carried periteneia, and suggest a circular plan for the construction. The total height was 3.39m including the foundation. A Late Roman pottery kiln was built into the structure.
