Report
Makri. D. Athanasoulis (25th EBA) reports the discovery during motorway construction of a cemetery containing 66 funerary pyres and 10 graves of the eighth and ninth centuries AD. Burial offerings comprised handmade pots and polychrome beads. The offering types, and the co-existence of cremation pyres with Christian graves indicates that the cemetery belongs to a period when the Christianisation of Slavic populations had already begun.
