Summary (English)

  • EMPORION PISTIROS (Zofia Archibald – z.archibald@liverpool.ac.uk) The earliest strata of the First Phase of Pistiros (c. 430 – 370 BC) were explored in Trenches B21 and D24/25. A building existed in Trenches D24/25, reconstructed several times during c. 350 – 250 BC. The finds included sherds, jewelry, an iron knife, terracotta loom weights, fragments from painted wall plaster and building ceramics. An architectural complex of house and workshop existed in Trench B21, located to the south of the main street. The finds included a zoomorphic point made from copper alloy and a small iron cube. The archaeobotanical analysis of samples from Pistiros showed the presence of pine, beech, oak, ash, maple, vine, peas and barley.
