Summary (English)

  • During the 2004 season was concluded the excavation of the Early Christian Basilica.
    The 5th and 6th century remains found in the fountain and bath house area suggested that that early Christian activity represented by the basilica was spread across the site. Finds included a lamp mould with Christian insignia. A portico was also found to the south west of the basilica.
