Report
Piraeus, 15 Sophokleous Street (property of A. Kalabaka). Kornelia Axioti (ΚΣΤ’ ΕΠΚΑ) reports the discovery of a quarry from which two block courses had been extracted (the upper 0.9m high). A shaft, 0.8m in diameter and with a square rim, was found on the western, upper step. Three parallel rock-cut channels (fig. 1) directed water onto the lower, eastern step and thence to three adjacent cisterns. Metal chisels were found inside the channels.
