    Summary (English)

    • MESAMBRIA (Anelia Bozhkova – aneliabozkova@yahoo.com, Petya Kiyashkina) The explorations continued in the southwestern part of the site. Part of a basement of a building of the Late Hellenistic period was discovered under the wall of the Late Antique building that was explored in 2007. Debris from a fire was discovered, containing roof-tiles, fragmentary architectural decoration, sherds, including from Megarian bowls, vessels with West Slope decoration, vessels of the Red Slip Type, imitations of the Eastern sigillata, amphorae, local pottery of the Pontic Group and imitation of Anatolian tableware, terracotta figurines, fragments from painted wall plaster and coins.
