| Description POSI | Two terraces walls to the W of one definite structure. Main structure 5 x 11 m, and possibly another. Walls collapsed. Western most wall rounded with associated pithos fragments. Dug into sidehall up to 1m on western side. Overall area visibility and has been affected by forestry terraces (rubble pushed from east). Forestry terrace dug into lower stone terrace. Stone terraces likely to support the structure The main structure is composed by two defined walls. The western wall seems to be curved and to be connected with a third (?) wall on its south side. This space defined by those walls shows a floor level lower than the terrace. We can note the presence of pithos sherds on the western part of the structure. They are lying on the ground and on the northern wall. West of this main structure, two other terraces with unclear wall (?) structures can be identified. These walls maybe support the terraces, or are secondary structures. This hill slope was clearly modified in order to make forestry terraces which disturbed our structures. |
