The excavation of 2005 marks the continuation of the excavations that have begun in 2002 along the inner facing of the Hellenistic walls of Issa. They were focused on the intra muros excavation of the well-preserved eastern part of the structure, which is almost parallel to the city walls. The walls of the discovered structure are well preserved at the height of 70-120 cm. They were built of evenly carved stone resembling stone slabs. Not one of the walls has been entirely excavated.
Although it is too early to draw solid conclusions it seems that the original structure was built in the Hellenistic Period, and then it served as a house in the Roman Period.
Previous excavations revealed a large number of frescoes and small finds mostly consisting of bone and bronze hair pins and bronze coins. A preserved alabastron made of alabaster was found together with a bronze stylus. Among the pottery finds tegulae are prevalent, some of them having a stamp PANSIANA; pottery fragments and glass fragments were also found. There are also a lot of finds of fish bone remains. The finds can be dated to the period between the 1st and 3rd century. This type of finds allows us to assume that the remains of the structure represent a wealthy Issean home.
Quadrant B-2 revealed a coin hoard, which was found under the floor level in a corner of the northern and eastern walls of the structure. 75 denars and 3 antonians were found. The coins were minted during the Antonine and Severian dynasties and the period of the military emperors, and belong to Antoninus Pius, Lucius Verus, Commodus, Septimius Severus, Julia Domna, Caracalla, Plautilla, Geta, Macrinus, Elagabalus, Alexander Severus, Julia Mamea, Maximinus I and Gordian III. The oldest coin is a denarius of Antonius Pius minted in 156-157, and the most recent one is an antonianus of Gordian III minted between the years 241 and 243. It is the first archeologically confirmed hoard on Vis, which will help to understand the economy of Issa and the circulation of money on the island of Vis and will contribute to the reconstruction of some historical events in Issa (Boris Čargo 2006, Hrvatski arheološki godišnjak 2/2005, 351–353).
