ATHENS, Plaka, 5 Dioskouron Street - 2006

Plaka, 5 Dioskouron Street (property of Andrattol Ltd). Nikos Tsoniotis (Α’ ΕΠΚΑ) reports on excavations in the courtyard and the interior of this building. Parts of a silo and a cobbled floor were revealed on the north side of the courtyard. The walls of the modern building were set on an ancient stone wall in places preserved to a height of 2m (some blocks appear to have been moved from their original position in order to fit the subsequent architectural plan). The central part of the building was largely constructed from ancient and Byzantine architectural spolia, and fragments of sculpture and inscriptions.
